Gordon Elliott has alllayed fears that Jack Kennedy would miss the Cheltenham Festival saying his stable jockey would “most definitely’ be there after breaking his leg on Sunday.
The 23-year-old Kennedy’s chances of riding at the fixture in nine weeks’ time appeared in major doubt after x-rays confirmed a below knee fracture.
Kennedy was riding Top Bandit when the pair came to grief at the fourth fence in the Rathmore Stud Irish EBF Novice Chase won by Appreciate It.
