Ruling Court has been ruled out of Saturday's G1 Betfred Derby after trainer Charlie Appleby judged the ground to be too slow for the son of Justify. The 2,000 Guineas winner had been due to start as one of the favourites. “The ground conditions were a concern yesterday with Desert Flower. William said yesterday it was genuinely good-to-soft, but we appreciated that it was drying out through the course of the day,” he explained. “We arrived here today with an open mind, let William ride the first race, but he felt it was riding good-to-soft. On this horse, stamina was an unknown for us and we felt after what we saw on quick ground at the Guineas, this was not going to be the ground for him today.”
