Ruby Walsh hopeful of being back for Punchestown
Walsh sustained the wrist injury in his fall from Blood Cotil in the Topham Chase over the National Fences at Aintree on Friday afternoon and, after standing down from his intended rides for the remainder of the card, also missed the winning rides on Yorkhill and Douvan, and his intended mount in the Grand National on Saturday.
It had been feared he might be out for the remainder of the season but, following his clinic visit, Walsh was hopeful he will return in time for the season finale.
