In depth

Verdict

Born For War was favourite when making his debut under Rules at Sedgefield in November but only finished third. Well Smitten should have improved for last month’s debut at Warwick and Petiville is another likely improver. RUNASIMI RIVER is by Generous and is a full sister to a winning hurdler/chaser so the four-year-old is fancied to make a winning start to her career for a yard that’s going well again now. Rockalzaro is another newcomer to note.
