BY THE GRACE has placed in both starts in bumpers, including on the Polytrack at Lingfield last month when finishing five lengths ahead of Dropitlikeitshot. The Secret Pearl found only one too good at Warwick on her debut under Rules while Sans Choix finished a lot closer at Huntingdon last time. Storm Spirit went close over track and trip back in February and also has a shout on that form.
