WINDS OF GRACE has been costly to follow but deserves to break her duck after several near misses. GALAXY QUEEN and HUBERTUS HUNT finished close-up last time and they wouldn't need to improve a great deal to make life difficult for the selection. SHADOWLINE, MADE TO MEASURE and IN BETWEEN have scope to improve, so they could get into the picture too.
