Forecasts

Accrington Stanley (7/4), Shababiya (7/2), Capla Knight (9/2), Rishworthian (5/1), Hungry For Fashion (14/1), Solomons Judgement (18/1), Jaffathegaffa (20/1), Amanda's Wish (25/1), The Mehmas Touch (66/1), Vive La Danse (66/1), Pentreath (66/1)

George Scott's ACCRINGTON STANLEY gets the vote to finally get his head in front dropped into claiming company. He was never involved at Wolverhampton last time, but can get back on the up with Oisin Murphy booked to ride. Rishworthian rates as the main threat making his AW debut, ahead of Shababiya.
