My Moment has dropped to a very fair mark but this once-useful chaser appears to have lost the plot and lacks the scope of GENERAL MILLER. A Grade 2 winner over hurdles, the top weight responded to first-time blinkers in a novices' handicap here last month and should take all the beating if the headgear works a second time. Dark Energy won over 2m2f here on the same day and can't be ignored but the promising Wiesentraum may need this and the remainder probably have a bit to prove at present.
