Verdict

DIVINA GRACE wasn't at her best when fourth to Iron Lion at Haydock a fortnight ago but, now 6 lb better off with David O'Meara's representative, it would be no surprise were she to turn the tables this time. Iron Lion should make his presence felt once more but bigger threats may be posed by the hat-trick seeking Baileys Khelstar and Island Brave, who has dipped to an attractive mark.
