Verdict

Alan King’s juvenile hurdlers usually know their job and TWILIGHT TWIST has won on the all-weather. This will be only his second run on Turf and he should be a factor in a race like this. Saint Riquier was beaten under six lengths by a subsequent winner at Ludlow and is preferred to Tarseem of those with experience as the latter refused to settle when third over track and trip.
