Forecasts

Lord Accord (11/4), Townhill (4/1), I Am Spider Man (11/2), Mr Yeats (6/1), Balkotic (7/1), Belles Benefit (10/1), Barbados Buck's (10/1), Belvedere Blast (16/1), Del La Mar Rocket (25/1)

Not many arrive with compelling claims. LORD ACCORD ran better from his reduced mark when third at Uttoxeter when last seen in July and is the suggestion with the Neil Mulholland team among the winners. Balkotic was placed twice in the first half of the summer and is next on the list ahead of Irish raider I Am Spider Man.
