Jockey Colours: White, emerald green epaulets and star on cap Notes: Timeform says: Took another big step forward when winning the Chester Vase in good style in the mud last month, keeping on well. Remains capable of even better but plenty of his rivals make more appeal on balance. (Forecast 41.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: It's very notable that the hugely-exciting BOLSHOI BALLET is the only runner for Ballydoyle and he can give Aidan O'Brien a stunning ninth Derby this century, 20 years on from his sire Galileo's victory. He won the two main Irish trials impressively and should have even more to offer over this longer trip. Mohaafeth, Hurricane Lane and Irish 2000 Guineas-winner Mac Swiney complete the shortlist.
