PAUL COLLINS shaped up well in handicaps this spring and might prove the answer, although a strong market move for Rakki would make him a possible big threat on his first outing for Willie Mullins. Lygon Lad is another interesting contender for a top stable, while it also wouldn't be any surprise to see last year's winner Son of Hypnos bounce back to form.
