Race preview
PORSCHE LAD showed little in three maiden outings on turf last year but reportedly strengthened up well following a break of seven months to land a gamble on his handicap debut over an extended 1m2f here last Friday. The selection had Doctor Grace and Guest Star behind in third and fourth respectively and while this step up in trip is not sure to suit, an 8lb rise seems fair for a gelding open to further improvement. Deed Pole and Tara Power both come here on the back of C&D wins, while others to consider include Nusra, Gallo Dell Cielo and Gardone.
