Dubliner Ben Harvey found his first ever Cheltenham win after a brilliant showing with 20/1 horse Seddon in the Handicap Chase. Fugitif and Shakem Up'arry proved to be his closest rivals towards the end, but Seddon's power and stamina proved too much for the rest of the field.

Cheltenham Results - Day 2
Day 2 of the festival featured some brilliant performances, with Enurgumene taking home the big prize of the day. The Willie Mullins trained horse took home the Boyle Sports Champions Chase at odds of 6/5 having been backed into favourite overnight. Impaire et Pass was also a short odds winner in the Novices' hurdle to start the day.
Delta Work backed up last year's Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase by winning the event once again, while Langer Dan got over last year's disappointment to claim the Coral Cup Handicap Hurdle at odds of 9/1.
The longest shot in terms of winners came in the Grand Annual Challenge, where 22/1 shot Maskada took home the victory for Henry de Bromhead.
It was a good day for the Irish trainers overall, with The Real Whacker coming in at 8/1 in the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase for Limerick man Paddy Neville. While Neville is now based in England, he spent 17 years as a trainer in this country before making the move across the Irish Sea.
Here's hoping for more top class action in day 3 of the Cheltenham Festival.
