Re: Horse Racing
Russell stunned by golden Friday.

Quote:
Davy Russell is still trying to take in what happened at Cheltenham on Friday after he won three races including the Cheltenham Gold Cup on Lord Windermere.
Russell, who lost his job as retained rider for the powerful Gigginstown House Stud operation to Bryan Cooper halfway through this season, ironically won the Triumph Hurdle and Grand Annual in the Gigginstown colours on Tiger Roll and Savello respectively.
Cooper broke his leg badly earlier in the week, enabling Russell to step in for some choice rides, and he is well aware how quickly fortunes can change in horse racing.
