In depth
Verdict
Another Reema is tried over a longer trip after looking a little one-paced over a mile at the Curragh and Leopardstown. This represents a drop in class and she should go well. MARY JAMES was having her first start since October when a close fourth behind Speechmaker at Roscommon a couple of weeks ago and will have benefited greatly from the outing as she wasn't fancied that day. Maunsells Duke has been well beaten on both starts to date and though Stop The Music improved at Leopardstown last time she will need to do much better to get competitive here.
