Piton won twice for Mark Johnston on Polytrack in a light career though there doesn't appear to be much jumping in his pedigree unlike Sizing Killarney, who is a half-brother to winning hurdler Another Rebel. Comedy Club will have learnt from last week's run at Wexford while On The Dry ran well for a long way on his debut at Gowran. Alpinia, a winner on the Flat in Germany, had a mountain to climb against two smart performers at Limerick but did well enough to suggest there's a race waiting for her soon but CRYSTAL PEARL is given a chance to redeem herself. Charles Byrne's filly produced a couple of fair performances against decent opposition before flopping at Navan where she constantly jumped to the right so this right-handed track should be more to her liking.
