KAZAKH D'ARTHEL finally got off the mark over fences with an easy success at Cork earlier this month and may be able to follow up if his jumping holds up in this bigger field. A Nod To Getaway won at Killarney in August and should appreciate the forecast strong pace over this trip, while Howya Luveen, a decisive Ballinrobe winner in September, finished with running left having been poorly placed last time.
