Duke Otto was well served by heavy ground when losing his maiden tag at Tramore and a 6lb rise isn't excessive. Future Proof is 1-36 over hurdles but looks ready to win soon after a better effort at Navan. BROWNSTONE (NAP) found 2m4f on heavy ground too much at Perth but still ran well and had something in hand when scoring over this trip at Fairyhouse. He's up 6lb but should be capable of better. Destivelle is 0-18 but would have a real chance on her close second here last month while Herculaneum's recent placed effort at Cork puts him in the picture.
