Race preview
ITS ON THE LINE won this 12 months ago before going on to land two major spring prizes at Aintree and Punchestown having filled the runner-up spot at Cheltenham in March. The seven-year-old still has plenty more to offer in this discipline and sets a good standard. Angels Dawn was in the process of running well in the Kim Muir when falling two out and she is more than capable of being in the mix, while Big Interest and Priory Park head the remainder.
