GALICE MACALO quickened clear of a subsequent winner at Chepstow on her penultimate start, so makes appeal returning to handicap company having run respectably in the face of a stiff task at Doncaster last time. Silent Revolution was stopped in his tracks just as the race was starting to take shape at Newbury in December and remains low mileage, with Boombawn and course-specialist Amelia's Dance others to consider.
