addictive nature horse_sean buckley

The 2 year old son of Savabeel has won his debut at Warwick Park on Wednesday 19th July 2017. Addictive Nature was purchased at the Karaka Spring Sale 2016 and is the full-brother to the Group II winner Savvy Nature. Ridden by jockey Tim Clark he comfortably won the race by 1.3 lengths over Gold Standard and Schubert.

“He has shown us a lot so it’s nice to see him put them away today,” said Bjorn Baker’s stable foreman

ack Bruce.

“We have been waiting a good year for that since we’ve had him.

“He is a real good looker and he has got the manners to match which I think is very important for a colt. He takes everything in his stride and even today before the race, how he handled everything, was very impressive.”
