Punchestown 2024

Midas the one for money

Sun 27th Jun 2010, 12:42

The market for the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby today is relatively quiet in terms of price movements, with Aidan O'Brien's Midas Touch attracting most support.

Midas Touch has been cut to 6/1 (from 7s) with most bookmakers while his stablemates Jan Vermeer (9/2) and Cape Blanco (3/1jf) have been easier to back.

Three English raiders Monterosso (3/1jf), Chabal (16/1) and Coordinated Cut (14/1) are others with solid claims.
