Cheltenham day two: Twitter reacts
What Twitter made of Wednesday
Another day and another hot-pot gets beat. The biggest shock of the festival so far saw 2/9 Queen Mother Champion Chase favourite Douvan finish back in seventh. In an extraordinary race, eventually won by Special Tiara at 11/1, followers of the favs were left wondering what they had to do to get a winner.
It was another entertaining day on Twitter, filled with highs, lows and great festival bants. #TopChat We have picked through a selection of the day, one from each of the seven races at the Cheltenham Festival…..

RSA Chase
Might Bite wins by a nose. Dont remember a more dramatic final 100 yards in a Grade 1 for many a year.
