Fallon told to ‘leave it late’ on Recital

KIEREN FALLON has been urged to play it cool in the Investec Derby — by the man who knows Recital as well as anyone.

Leading French bloodstock agent Gilles Forien bred the highly-strung colt, on behalf of the Renee Geffroy and Caragh umbrella, before he was knocked down to Coolmore for €750,000.

Many observers feel Recital will be ill at ease competing at Epsom, which is renowned for its unpredictable cambers, after he hung discernibly left when winning the Derrinstown Stud Trial in May.
