Alfred Cove You Will Always Be A Star Handicap

Had every chance in this grade last time but was still beaten 8 lengths here; first-time cheekpieces and sitting just 1lb above his last winning mark are small pluses, though Em Jay Kay returns from a 107-day break and draws wide.

AW form looks the key for King David, who was driven too hard in a turf handicap at Bath last time and beaten over 8 lengths; first-time tongue-tie and blinkers are fitted here, but a wide draw and a long winless run limit the appeal.

Off the back of a flat display in a higher-grade event here, Teardrops must come back to form at a more suitable level; the trainer knows this track well, though the wide draw and a winless recent run limit confidence.

Back on the all-weather having struggled on turf at Catterick last time, White Umbrella arrives in first-time cheekpieces after 48 days off; she handles the surface and has placed in similar company before, but form has been inconsistent lately.

Master Dandy has won twice in recent starts with his best form on the all-weather at shorter trips; he went well below that level on turf at Thirsk last time, but runs off his last winning mark in first-time tongue-tie and blinkers.
