Verdict
Ruby Walsh is an interesting booking for the useful pointer/hunter Close Review though his mount was beaten a long way on his reappearance here. Kylebeg Krystle hasn't had much experience over fences but will be fit enough after a couple of recent runs on the Flat and though Supreme Builder will love the conditions his career is littered with jumping errors. DUROOB is hardly the most consistent of performers and has only run four times over fences but if he reproduces his latest run when just held by Paddy O Dee at Downpatrick he'll take some beating and must get the nod.
