Son Of Getaway Not For Catching

The Ella Pickard-trained Getaround (4g Getaway - Playing Around, by Act One) impressed when running out a 12 length winner of Friday’s bumper at Chepstow.

An eight length winner of his point-to-point in April, the Garry Wilson-owned grey finished third over the same two mile trip last month. He was ridden to make all by Bryan Carver, partner of all four of the grey’s starts, and went clear from over two furlongs out. Staying on strongly, he won in comfortable fashion.

Bred by Bloomsbury Stud, Getaround is a half-sister to two winners, including Listed bumper winner Bigbadandbeautiful. He continues a fine season for Getaway, who commands €9,000 at Grange Stud for the 2020 season.
