Classy filly Alive Alive Oh could make her seasonal return in the Irish Field Alleged Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday.

Very impressive in the early part of last year, the Tommy Stack-trained filly suffered misfortune in obtaining her preferred soft ground, missing a number of targets including the Irish Oaks.

After winning at Navan in May, she was off until September when running no sort of race in the Blandford Stakes.

Ground conditions look set to suit at the weekend.

Also featuring in the entries is Jim Bolger's former Dewhurst hero Parish Hall, who ran a number of good races last year having missed the whole of 2012. Bolger can also call on Light Heavy.

John Oxx's lighly-raced Tarana is open to improvement after just two runs, and Dermot Weld has made an entry for Irish Lincolnshire winner Stuccodor.

Aidan O'Brien's Beach Of Falesa could revert to the Flat after a couple of runs over hurdles.

Denis Hogan's Inis Meain is another who has been hurdling but has lots of smart form on the level.

Asgardella, Bertimont and Jazz Girl are the other contenders in a field of 10.
