Twilight Romance (9/5), Silent Move (9/4), We Never Stop (9/2), Indicate (5/1), Land Lover (8/1), Eternal Fortune (66/1), Socialise (125/1)

TWILIGHT ROMANCE split a couple of next-time-out improvers when an excellent third starting out at Haydock 3 weeks ago and, sure to improve, he's up to winning a maiden. We Never Stop also shaped well starting out over C&D and is a big player, while Silent Move and Indicate are newcomers for excellent yards.
