Cheltenham Festival: Flaxen Flare lights up Winter Juvenile Handicap Hurdle
Trainer Gordon Elliott thanked the owners of Flaxen Flare for their support after he sprang a 25-1 shock in the Winter Juvenile Handicap Hurdle.

Flaxen Flare wins on day two of the Cheltenham Festival
Elliott said: "The owners are great supporters of the yard and to give them a Cheltenham winner is something special – winning any race here is hard.
"When we bought him we thought he would be a horse for the big days, and if never wins again he doesn't owe us anything.
