Walsh to partner Pleasant Company in National
Ruby Walsh expects to partner Pleasant Company in the Randox Health Grand National on Saturday week.
Willie Mullins currently has five horses entered in the Aintree marathon but Sambremont, Polidam and The Crafty Butcher are unlikely to make the cut, leaving Walsh to choose between either Pleasant Company or Alechi Inois.
With Alechi Inois set to carry 11st 7lb, Walsh has confirmed that he is likely to be aboard Bobbyjo Chase winner Pleasant Company.
"I'd imagine I'll ride Pleasant Company," he told At The Races. "Alechi looks to have an awful lot of weight. It's probably a summer mark he has more than a winter mark.
"The others of ours from 55 downwards, will they get in? It's touch and go."
Leinster's European Champions Cup quarter-final against Wasps on Saturday is live on BT Sport 2, which is available as part of the eir Sport pack.
