    Verdict

    ALTIOR can’t be realistically opposed as last season’s Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ winner has made a smooth transition to fences, quickly going clear in a Grade 1 at Sandown earlier this month when the headstrong Marracudja was last of the four runners. Stephanie Frances has been making hay in mares’ Listed races over hurdles and fences but she’s not got the class of the selection. It’s impossible to have any confidence in Zigger Zagger and Mrsrobin in this grade.
