Epsom Derby - Saturday June 3rd

[richard-westwood]

Dunno if it's just me but this years Derby looks a little sub standard at first glance .......I've completed the first scan of the race and it's put 2 horses well clear over the 3rd ....a full .7 so although that might adjust a little on ground I can't see anything surpassing them on rating now 

Arrest 9.2  13/2 

The foxes   9.0  9/1 

Both are improving fast ....both are from good trainers who do well in race ....if I had to separate them ...on paper arrest stands out as a progeny of Frankel....so that rings bells as being top rated and that pedigree ....overall I think both these will carry my money this year in the derby...there's a bit of value in prices too .......anyone else got thoughts on race ??
