CONTENDER Delacroix is set for the Betfred Derby
AIDAN O'BRIEN is set to fire several bullets at this year's Betfred Derby but accepts that Delacroix has emerged as his leading hope of securing a third straight blue riband triumph.
The Ballydoyle handler has enjoyed a superb run of results in recognised trials for the Epsom Classic, including victories for new ante-post favourite Delacroix, Lambourn, Mount Kilimanjaro and Puppet Master.
He suffered a rare setback when The Lion In Winter could only finish sixth in the Dante at York on his seasonal debut but the son of Sea the Stars is still very much on course for a crack at the Derby.
