PORTNACOO arrives here on an upward curve following back-to-back course handicaps in recent months and he's narrowly selected to defy the handicapper again and complete the hat-trick. Sandyman leaves the impression he has a bigger effort in his locker and is feared, along with Reebecca Menzies' Three Platoon, who returns to hurdling following a successful stint on the Flat of late.
