Derby thoughts

Soldier Of Fortune - not an impressive victory (although did have a
penalty) but taking into account his overall form, ability to handle
the Epsom gradients and the fact that he is likely to be the O'Brien
no.1 - he looks a decent price to me and the only other one I like
from the Irish camp at the moment is Archipenko 'if' he lines up in
the Derrinstown.

Apart from that the only other 3 that catch my eye at this stage are
Salford Mill (can improve on last run) or the Gosden pair - Raincoat
and Yamazaan - been looking forward to seeing the later run but may
not be till the Dante next week.

Thoughts ?

I like the look of Proponent, although his form isn't much he looks a grand
specimen and will improve for a step up to 12f when the time comes.

Mariotto is a horse i want to see, nicely bred and will get better with
experience, the worrying thing is he has no entries coming up so i doubt he
would make it to Epsom.

Mores Wells is another i like, has a good attitude and will improve for the
step up in trip. Form of last race has been franked, could run big at Epsom.
