BERTRAM Allen stormed to victory in last Saturday’s 1.55m Audi Prize at the five-star show at Indoor Brabant, in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, aboard Quainton Stud’s Quiet Easy 4.

One of the favourites in the 12-horse jump-off, the Wexford rider added yet another top-notch victory to his already impressive 2017 collection when he guided the 13-year-old gelding by Quidam’s Rubin around the jump-off track in 34.73 seconds, to collect €15,500. That time was almost two seconds faster than Italian runner-up Lorenzo de Luca and Halifax van het Kluizebos (0/0 36.46).
