POPPYCON has been knocking on the door since switched to handicaps. He had a next-time-out winner behind in third when runner-up at Sligo last time and is selected to make light of top weight. Las Brisas Boy is another who arrives on the back of a good second at Sligo, while Chosen Princess and Ballyminnion Boy have the profiles of potential improvers in handicaps.
