Despair turns to joy in the space of 40 minutes as Angel wings in

On more than one occasion here I’ve said that racing can bring you through the full range of emotions and yesterday was another illustration of that for us.

First, there was the dreadful disappointment of Oscars Well being so unlucky to slip after the last hurdle when going to win. But then what a difference 40 minutes makes and there was the absolute exhilaration of Bostons Angel’s win in the RSA Chase.

I’ve had a few Cheltenham winners now, but you never get tired of that feeling and it’s absolutely certain that I will have a raging hangover this morning. But you’ve got to celebrate!
