At the Cheltenham festival's final day, Geri Horner, former Spice Girl, anticipated her horse Lift Me Up's performance in the Hunters' Chase. Unfortunately, it placed 13th while Wonderwall triumphed at odds of 28-1. Lift Me Up faced struggles, especially under jockey Jack Andrews, given his challenging characteristics. Despite some pre-race optimism from Horner and the Racing Post's caution, the event highlighted the competitive nature of amateur racing, with Wonderwall proving superior, securing victory after a strategic ride from Rob James, marking a notable accomplishment for those involved.
It's amazing. I'm very excited.
Wonderwall had a lot more going for it.
It's unbelievable, said Wonderwall's jockey Rob James.
We shouldn't have been too surprised.
