Fame And Glory can boost Epsom Derby prospects

FAME And Glory can give a major boost to his Epsom Derby prospects by landing the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial at Leopardstown tomorrow.

In two outings as a juvenile, the son of Montjeu looked a decent sort in the making, but his reappearance, in the Group 2 Ballysax Stakes on this track, indicated that may well be understating the qualities of the colt somewhat.

On the face of it, Fame And Glory seemed to be facing a very difficult task, trying to concede 5lbs, and more, all round.
