Default conditional formating with text

I have two columns of data (A:B), and want to highlight values in Col B in
coloured text, where the adjacent cell in Col A contains data entered in
brackets. The data in column A is a mixture of numbers and text and formatted
as 'General' so that a number in brackets does not appear as a negative
value. I've used CF before but can't seem to enter a formula that works.

Any ideas?
