HUMM BABY ran well when fourth behind a trio of unexposed sorts at Punchestown last time and should be in the mix again off the same mark. Highstreet Roller found only one too good at Downpatrick on her handicap debut and is another to consider, while Strange Notions is back at a more realistic level.
