Naas Racecourse Business Club Handicap Hurdle
1m 7f 101y
Going: Soft (Yielding in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneCALVADOS contests her first handicap, having been placed at Listed level twice recently. A consistent performer, she has run well in defeat in some smart races, goes on soft ground and is helped on handicap debut by her rider's 7lb claim. Justicialism beat Doctor Churchill and Grand Revival when winning at Punchestown last month and while Grand Revival disappointed next time, the first two have solid claims. Justicialism is 2lb worse off but is somewhat unexposed and open to more progression while Doctor Churchill's jockey has his sixth ride. Magic Word beat Chacha Dancer by two lengths in December but took a notable step forward when second over CD last month and should run well on handicap debut. Chacha Dancer was eight lengths third to Doctor Churchill over Christmas and is now 4lb better off.
