Verdict

PREMIUM PACKAGE was an impressive winner on his only point-to-point start last May. With his handler renowned for doing well with these types he should be ready to run a big race. Sneaky Getaway is a very interesting contender. He was last seen running in a valuable Newmarket handicap having shown plenty of ability in bumpers. Should he take to hurdling then he could rate the biggest danger to the selection. Bloodstone is nicely bred and showed promise in his bumper. If progressing over hurdles then he should make up into a competitive racehorse.
