Verdict

ULTIMATE GETAWAY is thriving in this sphere and can win again before his attentions are turned to jumping. Bravo Buddy is another convert from the pointing ranks while Courtland is bred for jumping so did well to finish second over course and distance last month. Dansant Express is almost certainly better than he showed at Uttoxeter last month while Karastani is related to a host of winners and has had wind surgery since last seen.
