THE SHEIK ON THE DERBY

Last updated : 07 June 2003 By The Sheik
The Derby looks to be an open affair and the three to consider are
Alamshar, Brian Boru and Refuse to Bend.

Refuse to Bend has the best form having won the Guineas at Newmarket.

O'Brien has been bullish about the chances of Brian Boru. The one I fancy is
Alamshar from the same team as Sinndar and let's hope he can emulate him on
Saturday.

An outsider who may run into a place is Norse Dancer who was unlucky in
running in the guineas.
