Forecasts

Protest Rally (6/5), Gunnerside (11/4), Louis Treize (5/1), Street Life (12/1), Savalas (16/1), Essencial (25/1), Captain Bentley (28/1)

PROTEST RALLY arrives in fine form, so this looks a good opportunity for Liam Bailey's 4-y-o to add another win to his tally at the expense of Louis Treize, who is a bit of a tricky customer but can have his effort at this track last week easily ignored. Gunnerside arrives on a career-low mark and rounds off the shortlist.
