Faugheen showing speed and enthusiasm on gallops

After a week off I’m really looking forward to getting back racing, and the return of Faugheen is a great motivation, writes Ruby Walsh.
Faugheen showing speed and enthusiasm on gallops

I was advised to take the time off, and it definitely worked. I rode four lots on Thursday, and rode Douvan in work, and he’s in great order. I also schooled a couple yesterday morning, and am now ready for action.

There’s has been plenty of chat about Faugheen’s return, in tomorrow’s Morgiana Hurdle, and it’s great to have him back. From being on the inside, I always felt he would be back, knowing the extent of what was wrong with him, and how minor the issues were – they just came at the wrong times. I suppose from the outside people were having their doubts, but he’s back now and that’s the most important thing.
