The market will probably be the best guide for this weak seller but Omega Omega must have some sort of chance after finishing second over the trip at Yarmouth. Anginola is another for the short-list as she has the beating of Art Thief on the form book while Midnight Sequel won a couple of minor handicaps at Kempton earlier this year and this is her first appearance in a seller. ERMYNTRUDE has never won beyond a mile but was just beaten over the trip on the Polytrack last year so stamina shouldn't be an issue and Pat Phelan's mare gets a tentative vote.
