Last week's speculation surrounding a possible Johnny Murtagh selection for Rip Van Winkle saw Fame and Glory's price drift to 7/2 (4.5) from 11/4 (3.75) but strong support this morning saw him shorten into 3/1, leaving Sea the Stars a half-a-point behind at 7/2 (4.5). After working at Epsom at this morning's Breakfast with the Stars function, William Haggas's South Easter also came in for some support being trimmed to 33/1 from 50/1. The Somerville Lodge trainer holds a 100% record in the Derby, saddling just one runner in the form of Shaamit who claimed the Derby prize back in 1996. Kate Miller, spokeswoman for William Hill, said: "We have now reached the stage when every angle of Derby is being scrutinised and dissected, and so we're seeing a good spread of money as punters try to solve the puzzle. Pleasingly, momentum seems to be building up for Fame and Glory again, as we're in a bit of a hole with Rip Van Winkle and positive movement for another Aidan runner allows us some hope." |
