Verdict
FUTURE PROOF finished second for the fourth time when 4 lengths behind Shumaker at Fairyhouse and is very much exposed though this looks a poor maiden and he should finally get off the mark. Michael Hennery showed some potential in just three starts on the Flat while Womalko ran quite well on his debut between the flags at Belharbour last month. Pictures Of Home is a half-brother to three winning jumpers and looks a newcomer to keep an eye on while Ventnor should start beginning to show some improvement.
