Verdict
Blockade wasn't beaten that far despite finishing ninth on her debut at Newmarket but she'll do well to reverse running with TWIST AND SHOUT. The latter was only caught close home when third at Headquarters so Bill Turner's filly gets the nod. Richard Hannon complicates matters by running two belonging to the same owner though Richard Hughes has gone with Suite, a half-sister to a Listed winner. Ryan Moore is on board stablemate Touch Paper while Ron Harris also sends newcomer Danetimeranger to accompany stable companion and Wolverhampton runner-up Go Glamorous.
