The unexposed DEFAN would probably be arriving here in search of a hat-trick had he not made a bad mistake at the final fence at Thurles last month. He can gain compensation at the chief expense of Zarkareva, who he beat in a handicap chase at Listowel in September. Take All ran well behind the exciting Riviere D'etel at Navan last time and is one to note switched to handicaps.
