“Reevaluating Jeriko Du Reponet’s Chances in the Supreme: Insights from the Racing Post This Week”

The bookies may have overreacted on Jeriko Du Reponet for the Supreme, as evidenced by three key takeaways from the week. Katchit’s success contrasts with Ivanovich Gorbatov’s disappointment, highlighting the unpredictable nature of racing. Meanwhile, the returning Rich and Susannah Ricci-owned star has been strategically eased into competition by Willie Mullins, with her potential for improvement in mind. While a tilt at the Champion Hurdle has been ruled out, there is hope for her to excel in the mares’ contests.

Marie and Joe Donnelly’s silks have become synonymous with quality, and their latest prospect has shown promise in hurdling. With bigger targets in mind, any success this season will be a bonus. Despite being pushed out to 8-1 after his last win, Jeriko Du Reponet’s performance demonstrated his battling spirit, and he may benefit from a stronger gallop on softer ground. While he only has an entry in the Supreme, another contender, El Elefante, has the option of the Ballymore.

In conclusion, there are contrasting performances and potential strategies for the upcoming festivals. If decisions are made wisely, the odds could fluctuate significantly on the day of the event.
