Denise Foster has spoken of a "great responsibility" as she prepares to take a string of horses from disgraced trainer Gordon Elliott's yard to Cheltenham on Tuesday.
In what left the racing world numb with shock, Elliott had his licence withdrawn for a year - with half of it suspended - after an image of him sitting on a dead horse emerged online.
Prior to that, the BHA had already banned Elliott from saddling runners at Cheltenham, and Foster has stepped in to assume the licence at Cullentra - where Elliott is still allowed to live and work.
It means there will be no runners in Elliott's name at this month's Cheltenham Festival.
Foster now has the prospect of being in charge of one of the strongest teams of Irish runners at jump racing's biggest meeting of the year.
Despite Cheveley Park Stud removing their horses from Elliott, including the unbeaten novice chaser star Envoi Allen, Cullentra still houses stars such as Tiger Roll and the Triumph Hurdle favourite Zanahiyr.
Here, we take a look at everything you need to know about Gordon Elliot's replacement...
Who is Denise Foster?
Denise Foster, a former riding instructor, is affectionately known as 'Sneezy' and has a long association with horses.
She enjoyed a winner at Dundalk last month with Swiss Swoo - one of 10 winners she's had over the past five seasons - and recently saddled Getaway Goldie to finish third in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse.
The experienced trainer also trained Lily's Rainbow to win a listed race at Navan in 2016, while guiding Not For Burning to victory at the Fairyhouse Winter Festival.
Foster has also suffered tragedy in her life, with her husband David Foster - a leading event rider who represented Ireland at three Olympic Games - passing away after a fatal fall back in 1998.
She then lost her daughter Lucy, the wife of Irish trainer Fozzy Stack, at the age of 27 in 2014.Cheltenham Festival opening day chances
