Epsom Downs Race 5 - Betfred Derby (In Honour Of His Highness Aga Khan Iv) (Group 1)
Ryan Moore may need to work some magic from stall fourteen with the straightforward Aidan O'Brien trained colt DELACROIX (3) having undergone the perfect prep following wins in the G3 Ballysax Stakes and G3 Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial. Can progress up to 2400m for the first time and is considered. Impressive G1 2000 Guineas (1600m) winner RULING COURT (13) receives a nice draw in stall seven and will surely play a major role if seeing out the 2400m trip. PRIDE OF ARRAS (11) quickened smartly to make it two from two in the 2100m G2 Dante Stakes at York last month and cannot be ignored. THE LION IN WINTER (17) needs to bounce back from a poor display when sixth in the G2 Dante Stakes. Hard to rule out racing for top connections. Stablemate LAMBOURN (5) rounds out the shortlist.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. Most recently won by 1.3 len at Chester May 9 over 2460m defeating Orionis with 60.5kg at $10. The run before that 2nd of 9 at Lingfield All Weather on April 23 over 2400m, 1.3 len behind Rogue Impact with 55.5kg at $9.50. Pedigree suggests this may be beyond his reach.

Second run back. First-up after seven months 7th of 11 at York in the G2 Dante Stakes on May 15 over 2100m, 4.5 len behind Pride Of Arras with 58kg at $23. Previously second-up scored a big 5 len win at Pontefract LR Silver Tankard Stakes October 21 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Calla Lagoon carrying 59.5kg at $4.50. Hard to have in this more testing company.
