Re: Horse Racing
Very good result for Meade.

Very Wood sprang a huge 33-1 surprise in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle to put trainer Noel Meade back on the Cheltenham Festival roll of honour.
Market leader Briar Hill fell at around halfway, fracturing his cheekbone and giving David Casey, replacing Ruby Walsh, a nasty fall, while Kings Palace folded when leading turning into the straight.

Jacob hurt in Festival drama.

Daryl Jacob faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering multiple fractures in a dramatic incident before the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham.
Jacob's mount, the Paul Nicholls-trained Port Melon, crashed into a rail before the race, throwing the rider to the ground in a spectator area and sending a Channel 4 camera position flying.
