Playing at the club against weaker players, you get this rather unusual auction!
You lead the A♣, partner and declarer contributing the lowest outstanding ♣.

What do play at trick 2?

Would it change if declarer had bid only 2♠?

If partner is a good player, he is telling you that he holds the kD, and so you should continue a club to prevent access to dummies winners.

EDIT: its also possible he has a doubleton club and can over ruff dummy later, with a trump trick. Something like A87 xxxx xxxx xx
