Davy Russell Cheltenham odds as first rides back at Fairyhouse detailed

Davy Russell is 6/4 to ride a winner at this year's Cheltenham Festival after announcing his shock retirement U-turn on Wednesday night.

The Cork rider retired from the saddle less than a month ago, but will return to action this weekend, with Gordon Elliott's number one stable jockey Jack Kennedy facing a spell on the sidelines following the fifth leg break of his career.

William Hill make Russell 6/4 to add to his 25 Cheltenham Festival winners, while he is just 2/5 to ride one at next month’s Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown.
