Second to Ash Hill in Ireland in a Bumper and then over here with us at Newcastle. He then went hurdling after lockdown starting well at Sedgefield on his favoured quick ground (like his dam) just a head beaten by Galileo Silver (120 rated) then following up the next month winning 2m4f. This winter he was second at Musselburgh to Newtown Boy (122 rated) and then third at Cartmel. He has now returned to winning ways with a recent success at Sedgefield in a 2m 4f Handicap Hurdle.
By the sire Getaway a high class 12f-15f winner himself, he has already proved himself to be a high class sire producing exciting prospects Verdana Blue, Getabird, Talk is Cheap and Getaway Katie Mai to name a few.
His dam Tribal Princess was a tough genuine mare winning four times on the flat before scoring over hurdles and has Listed form next to her name. She also won over fences. From her first four foals she has produced Top Man Marty who won his Bumper first time out before going on to be placed in his first two Hurdle starts. Little Miss Vic was an impressive winner of her Point-to-Point and was placed three times in her Bumpers.
