The Ado McGuinness-trained DOCTOR GRACE was undone by a wide trip here last time. Prior to that she'd been narrowly denied here in January and might be able to get her head back in front if returning to that form. Without Love and Syosset have been in winning form here this winter and head the dangers along with Captain Hanley.
