In depth
Verdict
Road To Freedom would have gone close at Kempton last month had he jumped a little better and looks the pick of those with chasing experience. Superior Fire may do better now switched to fences but MOR BROOK is more interesting. Successful in two of his three point-to-point runs, Kim Bailey's gelding has been killing time so far in bumpers and hurdle races and finally gets the chance to show his true potential. Bobble Boru has won twice on heavy going over timber but he's disappointed of late.
