‘He’s a Group 1 winner’ – Don’t dismiss this 66/1 Derby outsider

Masar wins the Derby under William Buick

On Monday Liam Bramall tipped a 20/1 outsider for the Oaks at Epsom and this time he’s gone for one at an even bigger price for the Derby on Saturday. The horse in question is available at huge odds of 66/1 and he’s already a Group 1 winner. There should be plenty of each-way opportunities and this Joseph O’Brien-trained colt will be doing his best work late.

Epsom Derby (Saturday)

Tennessee Stud (66/1, bet365)  finished third behind subsequent Lingfield Derby Trial winner Puppet Master over an extended mile on debut at Galway. The step up to 1m1f made a big difference as he easily got the better of the useful Shackleton when winning at Tipperary next time.

A step up in grade then beckoned and he contested the Group 2 Beresford Stakes over a mile at the Curragh next time. That form looks absolutely rock-solid, as the winner Hotazhell went on to win the Futurity Trophy and Chester Vase victor Lambourn finished last.

Connections decided to head to France for his final run of the season and the Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud over 1m2f was the ideal target. It’s worth noting that he only faced two rivals and neither were strong opposition but he saw the trip out well on heavy ground to score by a length-and-a-half.

If strengthening up over the winter, 1m4f on better ground will be no issue for the three-year-old and it’s likely to facilitate a significant amount of improvement. He looked in need of the run when a well beaten third behind Delacroix on seasonal debut and should step forward significantly here.
