Templegate’s Derby runner-by-runner guide

AL WASL STORM 2

STORM warning. Won minor Chester race but looks like a two-miler.

DAMYSUS 3

DAM won’t brek. Finished well when second in Dante so trip fine as is any cut in the ground. Place hopeful.

DELACROIX 4

DEL boy. Ryan Moore’s pick has won the two big Irish trials and should stay. Goes on any ground and yard has fantastic race record. Player.

GREEN STORM 1

GREEN waste. Held in Listed race and Storm sunk.

LAMBOURN 4

BOURN to run. A downpour would help this mudlover who is all stamina. Watch the sky.

LAZY GRIFF 2

LAZY too slow. Behind Lambourn in Chester Vase and hard to turn around.

MIDAK 4

MID on. Paid £75k supplement fee after smart Group 3 win in France. Bred to stay on soft and big chance if ground is slow.

NEW GROUND 2

GROUND down. Held in Chantilly Listed last time and would only have a say if the rain comes.

NIGHTIME DANCER 3

DANCER in step. Fair run in the Lingfield Trial and track fine. Stays and more to come. Pick of the rags.

NIGHTWALKER 3

WALK on. Stayed on in the Dante and should like this trip. Must improve but cheekpieces may help.

PRIDE OF ARRAS 5

SHARP Arras. Showed good pace and staying power to win the Dante on just his second run. Will improve from that and looks ideal for this.

ROGUE IMPACT 1

YOU Rogue. Last in Lingfield Trial and needs a massive step forward.

RULING COURT 4

COURT short? 2,000 Guineas winner from in-form yard who warrants huge respect but stamina is a worry.

SEA SCOUT 1

SEA out. Well beaten in the Dante and outclassed here.

STANHOPE GARDENS 3

SOME Hope. Good win over a mile last time and improving but this is tougher.

TENNESSEE STUD 2

STUD spent. Group 1 win in France but beaten by Delacroix last time.

THE LION IN WINTER 3

LION may roar. Long-time favourite for this before his Dante flop. Stamina not guaranteed but has quality.

TORNADO ALERT 3

RED Alert. Led Guineas for a long way before fading into fourth. That’s good form and he’s bred for this trip.

TUSCAN HILLS 1

RUN for Hills. Well held in the Dante when his stamina didn’t hold. Swerve.

Templegate’s Derby tip and 1-2-3-4 prediction

KEEP Pride on your side in the Betfred Derby.

PRIDE OF ARRAS was a brilliant Dante winner at York and has more to come.

French raider Midak looks overpriced, while Lambourn would have a say if the rain comes.

And you never rule out Ryan Moore on Delacroix.

1st Pride Of Arras
2nd Midak
3rd Delacroix
4th Lambourn
