Default Pulling to right when Braking

Hi New here.
Question my 2002 discovery is pulling hard to the right when I brake.The brakes are "mushy"feeling , I parked herand checked the brake fluid and added a full bottle as it was low. I noticed the next day brake fluid was running out of the reseivoir almost over night. I have ordered aBrake Master Cylinder Reservoir Kit thinking that may be the problem but I was wondering if I may have other problems as I am not much of a mechanic. Any advice is welcome
Doug

The fluid was slowly running out of the resivoir where it mounts .I have taken it off and it appears that the gasket where it mounts are bad.(cracked)

I don't mean to sound like an *** but if you aren't much of a mechanic, and asking why the car pulls to one side, but you're brave enough to rebuild the brake reservoir? I'd have it towed to a shop and have it done, no use putting the Rover, you, or other drivers (and the national insurance rate) any higher.

I agree with Kodiak Doug. Mine will pull to one side when I need to replace my pads and rotors.
