Queen Grace has been in better form of late and though she was a well beaten third at Lingfield last time, she had Sovereign Secure behind when runner-up to Measured Approval at Dundalk before that. A line through the latter also gives her the beating of Big Bad Lily, Bangalore Diamond and Beyaz Villas. However, PRIMALOVA showed signs of a return to form when third at Down Royal last time and is fancied to reverse running with the runner-up Salaamie and take this. The latter has since ran a shocker at Tipperary, while Rigid Rock and Just For Mary have a bit to find with the selection on the Down Royal form.
