Davy Russell has made it clear that once Jack Kennedy recovers from a broken leg, he will go back into retirement... even if that happens before the Cheltenham Festival.
The Cork rider will return to action on Saturday less than a month after retiring from the saddle after Kennedy suffered the fifth leg break of his career at Naas last Sunday.
Russell says there was only going to be one answer when Gordon Elliott asked him to come back following Kennedy's injury, but insists it is not a U-turn.
