FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - HERB OF GRACE and Noirvento have plenty in common here. The pair are drawn beside each other in stalls five and six, and both are course and distance winners. On top of that Herb Of Grace and Noirvento were last seen in action on the same day, just less than a fortnight ago at the Curragh. Noirvento ran alright in a huge field at HQ, when sixth behind No More Porter. A big performance is surely in the offing from Tracey Collins’ charge now. Herb Of Grace may have more scope for progression as a three-year-old though, and she has Gary Carroll back aboard, having been partnered by a ten pound claimer at the Curragh. Top-weight Hodd’s Girl is another to keep in mind in a competitive looking heat.
