In depth

Verdict

Addicted can win the this at the expense of Beam Nash and Doctor David. The selection comes from a yard having winners at present and he ran with promise on his return to the race track at Wincanton when finishing fourth. He had shown promise in his native Ireland landing a bumper race at The Curragh. If showing improvement from his debut over hurdles he has to be the one they all have to beat. Beam Nash ran eleven times on the flat winning at Newbury in September of last year. He was rated in the high eighties on the level so has ability so is worth noting in the betting market on his hurdles debut. Doctor David ran well on his debut over course and distance when second to Prince Ary but this looks more competitive so improvement will be needed. So for the winner we return to Addicted.
