1/8
Fairly useful novice hurdler who won at Plumpton (2m, soft) in December and put in another good effort when second at Wetherby under a penalty last time. Has that to shoulder again here, but looks very much the form pick.
Debut Irish point winner last March. Hasn't yet eclipsed that form in maiden hurdles at both Bangor and Kelso on testing ground. In good hands, but much improvement needed to win this.

Forecasts

Adicci (1/8), Road To Reward (5/1), Heartbreak Kid (11/2)

Verdict

This looks a very good opportunity for ADICCI to pick up another win. Despite his penalty, his form is way superior to his two opponents and it will be a surprise if his colours are lowered. Heartbreak Kid appears to be the best of the McCain-trained pair on jockey bookings.
