Spot The Boss will be having his third start this month and couldn't cope with a 9lb rise for scoring at Navan when returning there a couple of weeks later. Convincing was staying on over 2m4f when a close fourth to Mr Eko at Leopardstown and the longer trip will suit but Dont Tell De Purty is up 9lb after scrambling home at Punchestown in October. Letterlee Star is 5lb out of the handicap but his jockey's claim will help though it was over hurdles that he won last time while Lusiad is still a maiden over fences despite having raced 15 times. This is a moderate contest that shouldn't take much winning and KYLEBEG KRYSTLE, who has had a couple of runs on the Flat recently, is handed the vote as she is probably capable of a little better than she's shown so far over fences.
