Silence Is Golden, winner of a fast ground nursery at Newmarket last year, was second on her return at Kempton Park, but was beaten three lengths and the feeling is that the handicapper may just have her measure for now. Revellino and Ring Of Destiny both made encouraging reappearances and have claims in a trappy contest, but preference just goes to the unexposed Intangible. She made good ground to land her maiden at Brighton last year, and a mark of 77 does not seem unfair for her handicap debut. Henry Cecil's handicappers have had a good start to the season.
