Verdict

TROOPER BISDEE took his record in handicaps to 2-3 despite looking far from the finished article at Bath 7 days ago and, just the type to go on improving for his shrewd stable, he looks to hold sound claims once more. Portoro bolted up himself on handicap debut latest and along with Selenachorus heads up the dangers.
