Ruby Walsh will return to action on Monday after spending the last four months sidelined with a broken arm.

The 31-year-old jump jockey will race at Roscommon after making a full recovery from the fractured arm he sustained in a fall at Aintree on Grand National day in April.

Walsh had hoped to return to action last month, and his sister and agent, Jennifer, confirmed: "It wasn't actually the fall that caused the damage. It was a horse coming along behind him that stood on top of him and broke his arm in three places.

"It was the three breaks that took the time to heal, which is why it has taken longer. The surgeon is 100 per cent happy with it. He's been riding out for the past ten days for his Dad and at Willie Mullins' yard, so he's ready to go."
