Punchestown

Tomorrow, January 13, 2025Hurdle2m3f

Unexposed mare BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA improved when third back from a break on her handicap debut at Fairyhouse and, armed with scope for further improvement, she looks the way to go. Lehaunstown can be expected to leave his low-key maiden form well behind now pitched into a handicap and is feared most ahead of Wendell's Lass. However, there is a significant caveat: if recent runaway Limerick winner Beggars Rock sidesteps his engagement here on Sunday and takes his chance, he will be a huge player.
