Grand National winning-trainer Oliver Sherwood has vowed to start afresh next season after getting the all-clear from cancer.
The 67-year-old told how he had been battling ill health on his return to Cheltenham earlier this month. Sherwood, who has sent out more than 1,300 winners in his career, was delighted to see Queens Gamble make an impressive debut in the mares' bumper.
It was the first time he had been to the prestigious Gloucestershire track since its October 2021 meeting, as he was diagnosed with lymphoma in the same month. Sherwood revealed in a blog post recapping the recent National Hunt season how he had recently been given the good news by doctors.
