Potters Pal
POTTERS PAL did it in good style at Clonmel and might be able to cope with an 8 lb rise. Poppycon made a good start to his handicap career at Wexford and is second choice ahead of Uncle Gerhard. Loi des Jeux is one who leaves the impression he could have a bigger performance in him before long.
