Bold Reflection another exciting graduate of Ewing nursery

\"She had good point to point form and was an expensive buy out of Warren Ewing's (like Constitution Hill). Her homework had been very good and we were hopeful of a big run. She is a big strapping mare, would probably appreciate better ground and stepping up in trip. She'll jump a fence in time and is an exciting prospect,” said Alex Harvey after winning the finale at Limerick, the Aqua Process Solutions Mares INH Flat Race, on Bold Reflection.
