Ruby Walsh believes Jack Kennedy can still challenge for the jockeys' championship after the young rider suffered the fifth leg break of his career on Sunday.
The Kerry jockey is currently 18 winners ahead of Paul Townend in the battle to be crowned champion rider, but faces a spell on the sidelines after breaking his leg at Naas.
Walsh, who also suffered five broken legs during his career, told RTE 2fm's Game On: "He’s 18 winners in front of Paul Townend in the jockey’s championship, he was probably going to be champion jockey for the first time in his career.
