PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
WINGED LEADER bits to continue his remarkable winning run, which has seen him 14 races in a row from Farmacaffley in February to his latest success at Ballycrystal earlier in the campaign. He was a beaten odds-on favourite in this race 12 months ago, and if he is to meet with defeat once again, it could be Angels Dawn that gives him the biggest test. She is a former Cheltenham Festival winner who finished a close third in the Thyestes Chase at the start of the year. Of the others, Ryehill is a newcomer to the open division but was progressive last season.
