O’Brien: Camelot will stay Derby trip

Aidan O’Brien is optimistic that Qipco 2000 Guineas winner Camelot possesses the stamina necessary to win the Investec Derby.

The Ballydoyle trainer is chasing a third victory in the Classic but his first in ten years. High Chaparral claimed the prize in 2002, 12 months after Galileo had broken his duck in the most coveted prize in Flat racing.

He admits to having been “humbled” many times in the intervening decade, which is why he is trying to keep a lid on the hype surrounding Camelot.
