Does anyone know how to kill volunteer Borage off in a Ryegrass/Legume mix for SFI?

I thought MCPB might be appropriate, any views or experience of this. Glypho was used pre drilling but volunteer Borage is persistent!

Thanks Andrew

Technically nothing from a can. MCPB does not have any label for non crop use, would have to be effectively a bean or pea crop to be fully legal unless it has an EAMU but the technicalities of applying to a mixed seed crop/cover/sfi option are open to interpretation but I would not want to recommend.
