Not one for the faint-hearted but SKY PILOT can reward each-way backers. Joanna Morgan's charge makes a quick reappearance after a promising run in what looked a strong event at Listowel last week and is certain to have come on for the run. Kid Curry went to Gowran in April with a big reputation and though not quite able to handle the front pair he acquitted himself well and will have gained from the experience. True Character may have found testing conditions against him at Roscommon but ran quite well as did Sean Og Katy when totally unfancied in the race won by The Shepherd King at Listowel. Fire Belt hasn't run since runner-up to Ballyburke here in February but had run very well on her racecourse debut at Limerick so fitness shouldn't be a concern.
