Verdict

The J J Walsh-trained PRINCESS MAHLER was still travelling well when falling two out at Limerick over Christmas and is more than capable of making amends here over a trip more suited to the seven-year-olds strengths. Empire Burleque in first-time tongue-tie could be on a handy mark on his second handicap start, while Noel Kelly's, James Boru can go well at a price.
  1. Princess Mahler
  2. Empire Burleque
  3. James Boru
