CHAPPERS' THOUGHTS
Our man Matt Chapman has delivered his verdict on today's Derby.
And he has gone for the fairytale selection - and gives his thought process behind it.
John Leeper is ridden by worldy Frankie Dettori, and as well as having Frankel as his dad has a mum of class in Snow Fairy, an Oaks winner for the same connections.
Matt Chapman
I suspect my selection will massively step up for a longer trip. He was a real eye catcher on debut at Doncaster and then hacked up at Newcastle before his last win at Newmarket. All those runs suggested he wanted a mile and a half, and form lines through Tasman Bay would make you think that while his last run was hard to equate he’s not beaten just trees.
Get that flying dismount ready Frankie – you might need to leap from the Leeper.FAIR BET
