FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - We haven’t seen her since October but perhaps ROMANTIC PROPOSAL will be able to bring up the hat-trick here. Purchased by trainer Eddie Lynam’s daughter Amy as a foal, she was bought by Joe Foley for owner Steve Parkyn, and the Clipper Logistics Group Ltd team sent the daughter of Raven’s Pass back to the Garrettstown House handler. Aforementioned Foley, stallion master at Ballyhane Stud, had a Royal Ascot to remember with successes for Dandalla and The Lir Jet, and he could have further reason to celebrate here as racing manager for Clipper Logistics. They also have each-way prospect Royal Highness in the mix. Romantic Proposal gets the nod though. Connections hope to get black-type for the selection at some stage, and as ever with a filly like her, when they start to improve you don’t know how high they will go. She likes good ground or a little ease and hopefully the four-year-old will find conditions to her liking with showers forecast. Colfer Me was second on debut for Ken Condon in the Lincoln here, just over a fortnight ago. He’s back a furlong in trip now with prospects off the same mark. Condon has a squeak too with Ice Cold In Alex. Denis Hogan is two-handed as well, Big Baby Bull and Cyrus Dallin doing battle for the County Tipperary operator.
