Verdict

Galice Macalo beat a subsequent easy winner at Warwick on her return to action and will be fancied to defy her penalty but ABOVE SUSPICION wasn’t given a hard time behind One True King at Uttoxeter. Tom George’s gelding will strip fitter today and the winner has since franked the form with a fine run in a handicap at Cheltenham. Galan Des Planches started favourite for a Fontwell bumper last month and the switch to hurdles will suit with Eaton Collina also open to plenty of improvement.
