FormscanBy Gary Carson - It looks hard to oppose ROMEO COOLIO here after two impressive displays over fences. The Kayf Tara gelding put some decent rivals in their place in fine style in the 'Drinmore' at Fairyhouse late last month and should have no issues with the drop back in trip now. Salvator Mundi was turned over at a very short price on his chase debut in Thurles but may improve a bit from that experience and could be the one to chase home the selection. Irish Panther made a fine start over fences when scoring at Naas but faces a much stiffer task now.
