Faugheen return a tough watch for Walsh Ruby Walsh admits it was tough to watch Faugheen make such a spectacular return to action from the sidelines last weekend. Walsh broke his leg in a fall at Punchestown 24 hours prior to Faugheen impressing on his return from 22 months off the track in Sunday's Morgiana Hurdle in the hands of Paul Townend. "It was great see Faugheen winning on Sunday, but heartbreaking not to be on his back and that will be the case every weekend between now and when you return. That's the mental pain of any sports person who's sitting on the sidelines," Walsh told Racing UK. "His home work had been very good. He was showing us at home that he had retained what we thought was all his old ability. He obviously had to go to the track and show that. To me, he certainly did on Sunday. "You take the race as a whole and look at it, it was a very good performance. "Everyone is very happy with him and he seems really well. "Where he goes next, I don't know, but you'd imagine it would be somewhere at Christmas and then another race at the end of January or the beginning of February and then on to March, all being well."
