Race Tip

EXPLORERS WAY (6) broke through for a win earlier in the campaign. Recorded two placings since including a useful 1L third at Leopardstown last time. Expected to progress returning to a stamina test. FRENCH COMPANY (1) scored at Sligo over 1m2 1/2f before placing third in a tougher eighteen runner Curragh contest. Brings excellent form and can defy top weight. ARCH ENEMY (2) was a useful second at Leopardstown when last seen. In contention if replicating that performance. AVATAR JET (7) holds each way claims following a fourth at Leopardstown tackling 7f. Could improve for significant step up in trip.
