I have not been following the Derby as closely since the quarter final stage and the elimination of Robinho and Paddy. To me it lost some of its lustre with no stand out dogs left, in saying that the winner will be a worthy winner and will deserve whatever praise comes its way. Coming back to my damlines analysis its nice to see the top lines still heavily represented with Forest Scholes, Ullid Conor, Dilemmas Flight and Westmead Lord flying the flag. The other two are very well bred as well. Caulry Fast Trap being out of superbrood Queen Survivor who descends from Gunboat Ann and further back the 62/63 Irish Coursing Oaks winner Regent Princess whilst Loyal Honcho comes of the "Handbag" line which produced the 74 Irish Oaks winner Fur Collar amongst other great dogs.
Below is the trap draw for Saturday night.
1 Forest Scholes,
2 Ullid Conor,
3 Dilemmas Flight (w),
4 Caulry Fast Trap (w),
5 Loyal Honcho (w),
6 Westmead Lord (w)
I fancy Loyal Honcho to trap out and lead them all the way but as always a lot will depend on the first corner scrimmaging. Hopefully they all come home safe and sound.
