GRAECIA has enjoyed a fine year over hurdles and may be able to take another step forward returned to better ground. She's narrowly preferred to the improving White Noise, who looks capable of a bold bid for the hat-trick, while last year's winner Tour Ovalie shouldn't be overlooked following a career-best success at Ludlow last time. Rula Bula and Golden Falls both deserve an honourable mention in a trappy handicap.
