Triple Sec had a subsequent winner behind when battling to victory over 7f at Leopardstown and the longer trip will be in his favour. Scoil Naisiunta didn't appear to enjoy the Polytrack on her final start in October but had won a Naas handicap in convincing fashion on ground with some give earlier. Zeb City had been racing over distances much too short until a better effort over 1m2f at Roscommon last week but FOR PLEASURE, who finished just ahead of him that day, is likely to take some beating. An easy winner at Navan last month, he attempted to make all on his latest start and was clear at this trip so should be capable of holding on. The lightly-raced Impossibility makes her handicap debut and she's another who will be suited by stepping up to this distance.
