Irish domination fully reflected in English Derby outright market

IRELAND now has the front five in the sponsor's outright betting for the Star Sports/TRC English Derby so it was a confident Ian Fortune who met up with Jonathan Kay to discuss the state of play after round two at Towcester.

Graham Holland's Irish Derby first and second, Bockos Diamond and Cheap Sandwiches, are drawn to meet in round three this weekend, but Fortune was confident both will progress.

He does, though, have plenty of respect for a couple of the UK team who are at different ends of their careers, while JK highlighted an Irish challenger he thinks will only continue to improve whilst lamenting the draw for Kevins Rocket, whom he part-owns.
