The ultra-veteran See Double You, seven times a winner in 62 starts, was in good form over fences last summer and the bigger obstacles may be his best chance to add to his tally. HUMPS AND BUMPS, who is ten years younger, is 0-14 over hurdles but should be winning soon judged on a staying-on effort over 3m at Tipperary last week. That looks better form than Watching Brief's third place over the same track and trip on that day while First One D'Ana has never been anywhere near this trip. Josephina disappointed over the minimum at Tramore and is another taking a huge step-up in distance.
