Mr Henderson i have always followed french opera i see he is entered in the ryanair chase , how is the horse , and will we see him soon
Hi Nicky,
Just wondered if you had an update on A Media Luz? I was very impressed with her comeback this season and most disappointed (as I’m sure you were!) that she had to be withdrawn on her next engagement. I’ve noticed she’s been entered for 3 races since, but been pulled out at final dec stage. Is she an intended runner in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury? If not, when might we see her again and is she being aimed at one of the Cheltenham races? Any info would be much appreciated.

Hi Mr Henderson,
I was just wondering what has happened to Punchestowns, as he has not run since April, will he be due for an outing this season?
Yours curiously

Hi
I like to have an ante post on the supreme novice hurdle. How would you rate Darlan in relation to Captain Conan ?

i was thinking that i would like a horse to beat big buck’s and who else better to train the horse but you do you have any horses that you think could beat it or any horses to follow that you like from your stable thanks lewis …..

hello, very impessed with darlan last week seems to have grown alot any idea on future plans or cheltenham targets? thanks for your time.
Mr. Henderson,
Would you update me with any news on Agean Dawn, i’ve obviously overlooked what’s happening with him.
Thankyou.
Hi Nicky
Can you please let me know how Spirit son is and when will we see him race next ? .
Also I know you get asked this alot but was just wondering when your next open day is?
Thanks
Afternoon,
Congratulation on the 7 winners, amazing effort to do. I was just wondering how Oscar Whiskey was doing after his fall at ascot the other day, he is a top class hurdler and what his next target is to get his winning streak back on track!
Many Thanks
Seven winners from seven runners for the master of Seven Barrows…

Hi,
Any ideas on when i can expect to see Bobs Worth and Spirit Son run first time out this year?
Cheers.
Hi Nicky,
I follow Roger Charltons yard on the flat amongst others and believe you have received one of his long distance runners keys, just wondered how he was schooling and look forward to seeing him on the track.
Thanks John
can you tell me when dandino will have his first run over jumps, loved this horse on flat and think it could be very good over hurdles. thanks
Nicky. Just finalising my Ten to Follow. I am stuck between Spirit Son and Oscar Whisky as a hurdling selection alongside Hurricane Fly and Big Bucks. Any thoughts and where would they kick off their campaigns ?
I am intrigued if you are bullish as i am about Ozeta’s first run for you in the Triumph Hurdle Trials this coming Saturday at Cheltenham. This looks a nice filly ?
Thanks Nicky

Hi Nick
Big fan of your horses. Burton Port looks a quality animal last seen in last years Hennessy will he be out this year he seems very lightly raced is there an injury issue ?
Regards, John.
P.s: Good luck for the season.
Good afternoon ,
Could anyone please advise date of Grand0uet trip to France?
I have read that there is championship race in France in Novemeber being comnsidered for the horse.
Many thanks .
Hello Nicky,
Surfing ran only a few times last year, but is held in high regard by you.
Will he be running this year and how is he.
Regards
Ian Mallett
Dear Mr Henderson
A year past late January, the day Lifestyle won its debut bumper, my fiancee Jane and myself came to look at Prince Du Beury: Henry Ponsonby was coming to show us the horse but there was a time mix up. You personally took over the reins( bad pun?) and were most hospitable. Due to a subsequent health blip I decided not to pursue the horse and contacted Henry personally. I sent him a cheque for £100 for his out of pocket expenses but he generously passed it on for your Stable Jockeys fund.
Congratulations on your excellent season last year. Personally I followed with great interest your quality ex- bumper horse running in novice hurdle races with Cheltenham the pinnacle!
Bear’s Affair, Fourth Estate, Malt Master, Ericht, Hit The Headlines, Lets Get Serious and Mono Man are obviously examples of a similar harvest for you all in this coming season.
Thanks! Kenny
Hi Nicky, not sure you ever get to read these posts, but you never know someone may pass on my regards! I just wanted to say I have worked with two of the greatest Racehorse trainers, one was G W Richards up in Greystoke near Penrith where I worked as a young lad with Big Ron Barry and then JJ O’Neil and Neil Doughty. The other is yourself, again I had the privilege to work with Steve Smith Eccles, and Johnny Francome while you trained out of the Windsor House Stables. I left racing not so long after for a career in medicine, and still reminisce about those times and miss the horses desperately. Good luck for next season!!!
Dear Mr Henderson,
My daughter and I came to Lambourne on Friday ,we felt very privileged to be able to look around your lovely yard .We were most impressed with the way the horses looked and their .mental attitude .Having worked with horses in my younger days it was a real blast from the past to see rack chains in all the boxes ,we always used these and the horses were racked up when mucked out and in the afternoons ,something one does not see these days
A pleasure to see a well run and happy yard.
Kind Regards,
Celia Gosling
Thank u! I had a treble on Spirit Son, Finnian’s Rainbow and Oscar Whisky last Saturday… The same three i backed in an ew treble at Cheltenham! It was the best day of my life as my girlfriend gave birth to my first child later that night…. His name is Oscar!
Thanks again

Hi Nicky, I went to Aintree on the first day, Thursday, but couldnt get near you unfortunately, could you please send me a signed photo, John Dalton. 62.Fenwick Lane. Halton Lodge. Runcorn. Cheshire.. WA7 5YU.
Mr Henderson,
Can you please provide me with the date and other information on your open day
i have followed your horses since you commenced training and i have always wanted to
visit your stables now this year i am able to make that visit
Thanks
Jim Noble
thanks very much for removing my comment on the incompetent nicky hendersonwho seems to be untouchable
why are so many of your ultra short priced favourites beaten easily in their races, this has been going on for years now and if their is a problem why don’t you just shut down your stable rather than continue to burn lots of punters money, trainers like you discourage punters from staying in the game and that can only be to the detriment of racing.
(edited to remove all caps: its rude and patronising)
dear sir today i had a phone call from a guy called amond who said he is a freind of patt malloy blood stock agent from irland wanting me to place money for them on one of your horses today city press this guy amond said
that he works as an agent for
trainers and jockys is this just a con many thanks alex
well done with long run hope you have more gold cups to come great horse and well done to all
Whats your best tip for the cheltenham festival ?
Hi Mr Henderson,
I was wondering whether you are going to refund all ante-post bets that have been placed on Binocular in the last two weeks? This is not a small race at a park course, but ante-post favourite for the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham, i’m sure the Bookmakers that are not refunding bets, you’ll be sat at the very top of their Christmas card lists.
could you please tell me whats happening to aegean dawn,as ive noticed hes not in the imperial cup betting nor in the cheltenham betting,hope everthing is ok with the horse
Huge commiserations on your recent lose – not a racing fan but a have a huge love of animals. My deepest sympathy.
