Nicholls is set to take the wraps off exciting French recruit Sang Bleu in the Coral Future Champions Finale Juvenile Hurdle at Chepstow on Monday.
The three-year-old won a maiden at Auteuil in October for Guillaume Macaire before being purchased by bloodstock agent Anthony Bromley.
And if his work at home is a guide, he should acquit himself well when pitched into Grade 1 company for his first start on British soil.
Nicholls's assistant Dan Skelton said: "He is a very exciting horse and a future chaser. He is entered at Chepstow and he won't mind soft ground.
"He could face a stiff test there but we are keen to find out more about him. He has been flying up the gallops and doing everything that we've asked of him. It is good to have experienced jockeys like Ruby Walsh on your side. They can tell you all you need to know and he thinks he's a nice prospect."
