Sir Gino: Nicky Henderson’s star returns to Seven Barrows after infection setback | Racing News happymamay

Sir Jino, the winner of the Warad LED chase, returned to Nikki Henderson Square, seven Barrow, on Monday for the first time since it was accepted in a veterinary hospital after he took the infection.

The five -year -old, who was preferred for Arkle Chase before being excluded during the remaining period of the season, will continue to restore him in Henderson’s care.

The disease, which was called “Super-Bug” by his coach, is officially infected in the laces in the leg near the back and was under the supervision of employees at Donnington Grove Vets until Monday morning.

Talk to RaceHenderson said: “He has been in Dyington since then before Schengeham and it was very bad, but Henry O’Neill and his team did surprisingly. They believed they were on his head, and this is the main thing, but we have to stay on his head,” Henderson said.

“He returned to the house this morning after five weeks. It seems fine, but no one will be surprised if they suffer from bed for five weeks.”

Many critics and spectators speculated whether the first -grade winner will move to the path again, as this is the potential intensity of his infection.

Sir Gino was owned by Joe and Mary Donlley, and was destined to greatness after following an unbeatable profession – whose climax in success in fighting the fifth November – with a convincing victory over Paliporen in the chase of Lad Wayward Lad Novices in Kempton in December.

“He got a long recovery and rehabilitation to come before we get an idea if he would become a hippopotamus again, but everyone hopes. He got all the summer to come, when we hope he will go out in the field, and everyone has done a great job,” Henderson added.

“It is a little sad. The only thing he will not do is to beat Arkle because it will not be a beginner any beginner, but all it matters is that it comes through it.”

Sidi Jino is the favorite 7/2 (the best price) for the renewal of 2026 Champion Chase, with his fixed colleague Jonbon – was beaten by Marine Nationalism in the competition of this term – 10/1 opportunity.
