PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Former Grade 1 winner HARDLINE had the measure of the potentially re-opposing Visioman at Castletown-Geoghegan and he will be expected to confirm that form here once again. Brain Power was a beaten favourite in this race last year and he did not have things go his way last week in Umma House. He would look to have an easier engagement in Loughbrickland, which may leave the likes of Er Dancer, Lough Der Spirit and Samurai Cracker as the big threats.
