KING'S HAND gets the nod to make it second time lucky for new trainer Joseph Parr, with confidence in his chance increased should his Lingfield conqueror Sea Founder run well in the 7.00. The slight step back up in trip should suit Seventy who can confirm recent Lingfield superiority over Muy Muy Loco and fill the forecast spot.
