Davy Russell wife: Who is Edelle O’Meara?

One of this generation’s most honored jockeys is Davy Russel. Russell was born on June 27, 1979, in Youghal, County Cork, and celebrated his 43rd birthday last year.

Russell grew raised in a home where horse racing was a big deal.

Russell’s horrific fall in October prevented him from being medically cleared to compete this year, which is unfortunate.

He had shattered and dislocated vertebrae, but the worst may have been yet to come. Russell described the sensation as a “burst of pain like a firecracker” when he recovered.

Russell acknowledged that during the collision, he ‘dodged a bullet.

It was C6, C7, and T1, he informed the Irish Times. There was a T1 dislocation. They placed me in traction, which was awful.
