DYSART DYNAMO'S emotional horse groom wiped away tears after he survived a nasty fall at Cheltenham.
The horse owned by Eleanor Manning was leading the race for the Arkle Challenge Trophy as they approached the final fence.
However, the tired-looking stallion clipped the last hurdle and suffered a horror fall.
Thankfully, Dysart Dynamo miraculously came away unhurt after receiving medical attention.
The horse got back on his feet and skipped away while being held by his groom.
She looked emotional and relieved when holding on to him, wiping away tears and giving the horse a hug.

The race was eventually won by El Fabiolo, who was the pre-race favourite, with Jonbon coming in second.
The fall from Dysart Dynamo left fans concerned but it also cost many a huge potential win.
Thousands of punters backed him to win the 14:10 race at Cheltenham after a betting expert tipped him to win.
He was the first predicted winner in a much-backed four-fold accumulator that had odds of 2155/1.
