A classy looking bumper can go the way of SANTANA PLESSIS who has placed on both previous bumper starts and he looks capable of going one better than when finishing runner-up at Punchestown last time out. The Big Getaway was an expensive purchase following his maiden point-to-point victory and he can take second for a top yard while third place can go to Lucky Ranger who performed well when fourth in a maiden hurdle on debut in December.
