Verdict

Silvestre De Sousa rides Epsom particularly well and his mount MARIE'S DIAMOND could be the one to side with in the opener of the Derby meeting after a promising run at Newbury last time. True Belief looked in need of his debut at York but may do better here while Usain Boat got his head in front at Newmarket last time and should go well again with Dettori in the saddle.
