Ruler to be given a break Aidan O’Brien has indicated Ruler Of The World will now been given a break, following his fifth place finish in the Irish Derby. O’Brien said: "He's had three quick enough runs and he got a bit warmer than he did at Epsom. "I don’t want to make excuses as the winner did it well. We may give him a break now as he deserves it." O’Brien also ran Festive Cheer in the third Irish Classic of the season, and he kept on well to finish a good third. He said of him; "I’m delighted with the way he ran. He ran better than he did at Epsom and Ruler Of The World didn’t but that is racing I suppose." Additional reporting by Alan Magee
