FAMOUS STAR made a short-price favourite work pretty hard at Wolverhampton 17 days ago, in turn pulling nicely clear of the rest. That was a most-promising start and she looks up to winning this. Kingsofthemidlands and Red Square are slightly more exposed but represent leading yards and are the obvious threats.
