Douvan defeat hard to take but Yorkhill can provide some respite

It was tough, but we’re all still standing, and we must move on, writes Ruby Walsh.

Yesterday was a frustrating day, the real disappointment, of course, being Douvan’s defeat in the Champion Chase.

He was never travelling, and his jumping was erratic. He is due to be scanned and x-rayed this morning, and we expect something to come to light as he was very stiff and sore behind yesterday evening. It was tough, but we’re all still standing, and we must move on.
