Durcan pencilled in for Mill

Ted Durcan has landed the plum mount aboard Salford Mill in the Vodafone Derby with Kerrin McEvoy set to be claimed for a Godolphin-owned runner in the premier Classic.

Durcan teamed up with David Elsworth’s colt when he was narrowly beaten on his reappearance, but McEvoy took the reins when Salford Mill stated his case for Epsom with an impressive triumph in the Feilden Stakes at Newmarket.
