Incredible.

JOE reader Niall McGovern has sent us news of his remarkable good fortune from Cheltenham, where he has won a placepot worth north of £16,000 from a stake of just £5. While the majority of people would have included Douvan to place in the Queen Mother Champion Chase, Niall somehow avoided that fate suddenly he was staring down the barrel of a massive, massive win. https://youtu.be/_d_ITP-0UuI We're getting unconfirmed reports that Niall is currently swimming in a pool of champagne, somewhere in Gloucestershire. He sent us these slips as proof of his windfall. Well done Niall. (We hate you.)
