Winning point-to-pointer Humps And Bumps has yet to score over hurdles but has been running well enough over this sort of trip to get into contention. Sizing Joshua hasn't been in good form over fences but has bits and pieces of form over timber that could see him go well while Shantelle, who is 1-24 over hurdles, hasn't been running badly and can't go much lower in the weights. TUNGSTEN KID (NAP) was only caught close home for second over slightly further at Ballinrobe last time. He's been left on the same mark and this is such a poor contest that he looks to have a fine chance of gaining his first victory. Helly Hansum didn't do as well as expected in a Tramore handicap after a good run in a Clonmel maiden.
