In depth
Verdict
Media Stars won at Redcar last month but has been soundly beaten in three runs since, while Marino Prince has failed to figure off a higher mark since scoring at Ayr in May. In a poor contest, the lightly-raced BORDER ABBY wouldn't have to find much improvement to open her account after going close at Ffos Las recently. She gets the vote here with the equally unexposed Chapter Five possibly the biggest danger, as it's hard to make a serious case for any of the remainder.
