FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Axiomatic finished alone when winning his point-to-point at Ballynoe on St Patrick's Day last year for Pat Doyle. His four rivals either fell or were pulled up on that occasion and Doyle said of the half-brother to Beyond The Law: "He's a nice horse that should hopefully develop into a smart sort." Lucky Ranger went into the notebook as a certain future winner with his effort at Leopardstown at Christmas. Into bumper company now the Bushranger gelding is fitted with a tongue-strap. There are a few that need respecting, including Santana Plessis for Gordon Elliott and Jamie Codd, but for a selection I'll row in behind THE BIG GETAWAY. The owners are on a roll after their smashing Gold Cup success with Al Boum Photo, their Champion Hurdle silver medal with Melon, and Shishkin carried the yellow and black to a good success at Kempton on Saturday. The Big Getaway joined Closutton from the Doyles in Wexford for 230,000 pounds. One analyst said after his Horse and Jockey point to point win - "The Big Getaway could be very special. He barely came off the bridle to score by a distance on his debut and could not have been more impressive." Sean Doyle said after the win: "Derek O'Connor rode him in a piece of work two weeks ago and what he did over two miles was mind-blowing. When you see him over three miles there, it's just onwards and upwards for this lad. This is a proper horse."
