BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA (6) won by a head over 3m at Leopardstown on yielding ground. Showed a great attitude on that occasion providing good stamina coming from the back when looking like she was going nowhere. Leading chance. ARTIC LANE (4) steps up in trip. Provided solid performances when not unseating the rider including latest running 14L fifth in a Grade 2 at Punchestown during January. Consider. NOW SO JAKE (3) struggled finishing 30L eleventh dropping back to 2m4 1/2f at Galway last August. Goes well fresh. Won tackling this trip last July. IRA HAYES (1) steps up in journey which won't be an issue based on his point to point experience. Managed a 21L third at Wetherby over 2m3 1/2f after a break in February. Might have needed that outing.
