Formscan  - The combination of a change of scenery and introduction of a tongue-tie and blinkers saw ROOM SERVICE make a winning stable bow at Newcastle. The five-year-old stayed on strongly to lead towards the finish and the step up to a mile could unlock further improvement. Cerro Blanco has only tasted defeat once in three outings to date, when runner-up at this level at Newmarket in May, and he rates a live threat, along with Nahraan.
