The successful new duo took the top prize in the $37,000 Adequan WEF Challenge Round 6, yesterday which attracted a massive 90 starters, just one week after winning the 5* $1,000 Bainbridge 1.40m.
“He’s a very new horse to me,” said Allen. “He arrived three weeks ago. I jumped him last week and he was very good, so it wasn’t the plan to jump him this week but because he was so good, we decided to jump again. We thought he’d like the grass and he just seems to be getting better and better every round at the moment. He’s very competitive, and he’s a nice nature. He’s very careful and always trying his best,” Allen says.
Bertram has already had success earlier in the winter circuit, winning the $37,000 Adequan® WEF Challenge Cup Round 2 aboard Pacino Amiro as well as a sixth place finish in the CSI5* grand prix during WEF 5.
