Seeking Fame and Glory with Youmzain…
Irish Derby is Fame and Glory's to win today!
It has been a great week, but it came to an end on Saturday, but Sunday should be anoter winning day for us. What’s equally disappointing is the defection of Sea The Stars from today’s Irish Derby, but the good news is he will run at Sandown next Saturday in the Eclipse.
Irish Derby…
We gave you some early prices yesterday,but Stan James are offering 11-10 about Fame and Glory this morning, so get on this now. Its the best price and its a great price!
We were on Fame and Glory (4.20) at Epsom and we should gain compensation at the Curragh by taking Aidan O.Brien’s three year-old to win at even money. I cannot see him being a much bigger price at any stage before the race and without Sea The Stars this is genuine value in my view.In fact I think he will be odds on and win, so take 11-10 right now!

At Epsom he beat them all but the great horse with some critics, somewhat harshly, rounding on Seamus Heffernan’s riding tactics. Johnny Murtagh takes over in the saddle, having had the choice of six Ballydoyle runners in the race. The ground that was a worry for John Oxx should be no problem for Fame and Glory who has won on ground ranging from good to heavy. I simply can’t see this horse getting beaten today and have backed him accordingly at the early Betfair price of evens, which I think offers genuine value. Fame and Glory is the clear choice to land the Irish Derby.
Grand Prix Saint Cloud…
With fairly moderate cards at home we turn to France for the Grand Prix de Saint Cloud and the Mick Channon’s Youmzain (3.30). This horse has been unlucky but is a group one winner and, as Fame and Glory, offers backers genuine value at the early prices. I thought he would be shorter than the 2.5 available this morning on Betfair. I would advice taking the early price and get on with Betfair.
Youmzain is a 6-year-old son of Sinndar trained by Mick Channon in Newmarket, Youmzain has been the runner-up in the last two runnings of the Arc de Triomphe. On June 5th, his nose second in the Coronation Cup, in which he split Ask and Look Here, left him second-best in that 1 1/2-mile Group 1 for the second time in two years. The 12 furlongs of Sunday’s contest, in which he picks up the services of jockey Christophe Soumillon, suit him perfectly, in a race he won last year.
So its a group one double for us on Sunday, good luck!
