Gavin Cromwell has a decent chance of taking both divisions of the maiden as Lever Du Soleil was still a long way clear when falling at the second last at Punchestown a week ago. However, FUTURE PROOF made a very encouraging debut over timber at Down Royal where he stayed on nicely once getting the hang of things and Noel Meade's charge looks the one to be on. Far Reach was a long way behind in that latter event but has since run quite well at Dundalk while Ocean Voyage looks a nice acquisition for Gordon Elliott though is likely to need testing ground.
