Formscan By Mark Nunan - ROMELLA is on a hat-trick after wins at Clonmel and Roscommon and might be able to defy a 6lb hike for the latter victory. She got the better of Go Gill Go by two lengths and, having been off for over three months before that last outing, may have a bit more improvement left in her. Go Gill Go is 4lb better off with the selection this time so is an obvious danger and she has been a consistent performer in handicaps since winning a maiden at Sligo in July. Peace Party won very easily at Gowran Park and has to be respected despite an 8lb hike. It was a much-improved display from the 9-year-old and he’s in off a nice weight. Recent chase winner Ricky Langford finished behind Go Gill Go at Down Royal in August but as a dual winner over hurdles is another that can’t be ruled out.%0A%0A
