Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 30, 2019 Journalists Share Posted May 30, 2019 Aidan O’Brien will saddle seven of the 13 runners in Saturday’s G1 Investec Derby at Epsom, with the likely favourite and TDN Rising Star Sir Dragonet (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) joined by fellow trial winners Broome (Ire) (Australia {GB}), Anthony Van Dyck (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and Circus Maximus (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}). Sir Dragonet was handed the outside draw in 13, which will be much more favourably received than the one draw given to Saxon Warrior (Jpn) (Deep Impact {Jpn}) 12 months ago, while Broome is in eight and Anthony Van Dyck in seven. Cape of Good Hope (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) is off to Chantilly for the following day’s G1 Prix du Jockey Club along with the other significant withdrawal, the Roger Varian-trained G2 Dante S. third Surfman (GB) (Kingman {GB}). The Dante winner Telecaster (GB) (New Approach {Ire}) will break from stall two, while King Power Racing’s G3 Sandown Classic Trial scorer Bangkok (Ire) (Australia {GB}) will emerge from stall 12 as the other leading home-trained protagonist. Godolphin’s Line of Duty (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), fitted with cheekpieces following his disappointing seventh in the Dante, will break from the hoodoo stall one.
