BIRDIE OR BUST wasn't disgraced upped in grade at Galway on her most recent outing and looks interesting now returning to the scene of her sole previous success over fences, especially now switching to handicap company from what appears an exploitable mark. Hat-trick seeker Coming Up Easy is a stablemate of the selection and warrants plenty of respect, with Sea Music another to take seriously having confirmed his return to form at Galway recently.
