PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
It is hard to look beyond the former Grade 1 winners Brain Power, The Storyteller, Hardline and Road To Respect in what looks a hot heat, with BRAIN POWER going in search of his fifth success of the season having already had the measure of Hardline on a couple of occasions this term. The Storyteller won three times in the autumn before failing to fire at Down Royal, whilst Road To Respect has not been seen since he finished third in the 2019 Savills Chase off a mark of 169 and is an interesting recruit.
