SKYWAY was unfancied on her racecourse debut over the course and distance three weeks ago but defied her big odds with an excellent run behind the more experienced Alamanda and was closing at the finish. She wasn't the quickest away and with that under her belt will take some beating and should have no problems from sixth-placed Moonlight Rock. Atyaab is related to plenty of winners and there was much to like about her debut at Leopardstown last July while Mount Abora did very well for a 50/1 chance when a good fourth to Bellini Bliss at Gowran a fortnight ago where she had Dona Antonia and Queen Commander, who had both run previously this season, well in arrears.
