Going - Good to Yielding, Good in places. Raining

Formscan By Donal Murphy - No worse than fifth in his last nine outings, A NOD TO GETAWAY should run another solid race in this competitive affair. Successful at Killarney on his penultimate start, he finished third when last seen at Listowel, and had two subsequent winners behind. Up to a career high mark of 102, the Paul O'Flynn-trained eight-year-old will be ably assisted by Darragh O'Keeffe. The winner of a weak four-runner contest at Cork earlier this month, Kazakh D'arthel will be well-fancied to follow-up, while Howya Luveen and Finnians Row are other leading hopes. The only course winner in the line-up, Willywampus is another that warrants respect.
