Nonrunner
It was only a seller in which Aramadyh beat Moulin Rouge here last month but this is little better. The runner-up is 8lb better off so could turn the tables but HERMOSA VAQUERA looks a better bet on his victory at Plumpton in the spring – he's fit from the Flat. The three-year-old Khismet must have every chance off a low weight having made the frame last time at Worcester. Brinestine has a poor strike-rate but will probably pop up when least expected.
