Verdict

Ruby Walsh has ridden Aminabad for both victories over hurdles but Willie Mullins puts up a 7lb claimer here and Walsh is on board The Crafty Butcher for Mick Hourigan. His mount ran a bit better last time though doesn't look to have an obvious chance in a tough contest in which one of the likely market leaders, All You Need, has been raised a massive 12lb for landing a moderate Naas handicap. Harvey Logan was well beaten when fancied for this a year ago though bounced back to form at Fairyhouse last month while Bentelimar has a touch of quality and made a very promising comeback at Punchestown. ROSSVOS is 3lb out of the handicap but that should be no problem for Ted Walsh' charge, who scored from a 15lb higher mark over fences at Punchestown last month. Back over timber he's taken to make his low weight count in what should be a gruelling contest.
