Forecasts

Yorkshire Pirlo (3/1), Secret Handsheikh (10/3), Accrington Stanley (4/1), Velocistar (17/2), Coco Bear (9/1), Capla Dream (9/1), Olivia Mary (10/1), Mehmo (14/1)

ACCRINGTON STANLEY has been running consistently this autumn and he has already shown he handles this surface so he is chanced to gain a first career win. Secret Handsheikh is edging down the handicap and has some hope of handling this surface given his sire. Velocistar is a C&D winner that has to be respected.
