Nomoreblondes won a seller at Redcar a fortnight ago but this is tougher and FOREIGN RHYTHM looks a safer option. She scored at Newcastle last time under today's capable apprentice and Ron Barr's mare is just preferred to the returning Beauty Pageant. The latter won her maiden at Warwick last summer and is worth a second look in the betting after nearly a year off, while Oondiri had Hypnosis behind when fourth at Redcar a month ago and should be winning shortly. Crimson Cloud should go well with a recent run under her belt and could prove best of the rest.
