Calgacus ready to strike

Dermot Weld’s Calgacus should now be primed to strike and gets the nap in the IRadio IRL Maiden at Dundalk tonight.

The son of Galileo only hinted at possessing ability in one outing as a juvenile, but the evidence of his seasonal debut at Leopardstown is that he may have made plenty of improvement from two to three.

Calgacus went of an unconsidered 16-1 shot then, but ran a cracker to finish third behind Azamata and Dynamite Dixie.
