Verdict
Jim Best appears to be getting the best out of MARINO PRINCE, who gets the nod in the last. Since joining him from Barry Leavy, Best has had the selection placed at Market Rasen before winning eased-down at Hereford last time. The trainer has decided to run him again under his 7lb penalty and he should be followed while remaining in-form. Also racing with a penalty is Fakenham seller winner Tocatchaprince and in such a moderate contest he has to be respected. Catholic Hill and the featherweight Frosty's Gift are others with claims.
