Formscan By John O'Riordan - Having run his two best races to date on ground with a significant ease, ROMFORD could be set to open his account. The Kieran Cotter-trained gelding needs to prove his stamina at this trip but being out of a mare that was placed over ten furlongs, he should have every chance of doing so. Thia shaped with a degree of promise in maidens earlier in the year and while he hasn't improved since making the switch to handicaps, this doesn't look the strongest of contests. The Jim Bolger-trained son of Vocalised has to have solid claims. Rogerwaswrong has gradually improved with racing, putting in his best performance when third at Bellewstown last month. It would be no great surprise to see the Sean Davis-trained gelding go a couple of places better.
