Verdict
ALTO DES MOTTES looks to have every chance on today's terms. Placed in all three starts over timber so far, Henry Hogarth's charge should have the beating of Copperfacejack, well beaten when finally completing over hurdles at Doncaster. Bigger dangers could come from hurdling newcomers Bobble Emerald, Oh Land Abloom and Murray Mount, who have all placed in bumpers, while Hillview Lad and Cul Dealga are point-to-point winners to note.
