Verdict
A few with chances but A MOMENTS MADNESS signalled he is ready to open his account on the back of breathing surgery when runner-up at Fontwell last time out so gets the vote. The Dream Goes On made a successful chasing bow at Plumpton and heads the list of dangers with the prospect of better to come. Brulure Noire and Saladam also need factoring into this competitive handicap chase.
