Formscan By Alan Magee - JACOB’S LADDER easily landed the odds in a Down Royal bumper and appreciated the step up to 2m4f when getting up close home to take a Navan maiden hurdle last month. He gets the vote over Balko d’Ange who has progressed nicely over hurdles this season notably landing a Listed race at Limerick last time. The Story So Far won’t lack for stamina having won a 3m Cork maiden hurdle last time, while course and distance winner Birmingham Alabama is another to consider. There is not much to choose between Duke Silver and Dumb Love on running behind Shraheen at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting, while Butcher Hollow reappears after a lengthy absence.
