Runasimi River has shown little over the larger obstacles so far but MISS JEANNE MOON’s first victory over fences at Worcester wasn’t a total surprise and her confidence should have been boosted by that. Poniente was getting the hang of things in the second half of last season but Credo’s form over hurdles tailed off after she won an Exeter maiden in February. Do You Think didn’t win over timber but she has the scope to make a better chaser.
