Verdict

This could be teed up nicely for the consistent PROTEST RALLY, who is reunited with Cian Horgan (aboard when successful at Musselburgh earlier this month) and he wasn't beaten far when fourth off this mark at Lingfield recently. The 5-y-o will benefit from what promises to be a fast and furious gallop, with the other key contenders Hover On The Wind, Torfrida and Ziggy's Queen all likely to do battle for the lead.
