ALWAYS A STAR was a bit too free to be able to build on his Yarmouth run (which is proving to be a tidy piece of form) at Chelmsford last time and he should be up to winning from this sort of mark. Solanna should be in the mix again, while Unplugged showed he still has plenty to offer when scoring at Pontefract.
