Best Each Way Derby Tip: San Antonio Looks Overpriced at 20/1
Trainer Aiden O’Brien has won Saturday’s Epsom Derby eight times in the past and no other trainer has saddled more winners in the premier English Classic horse race.
The Ballydoyle maestro has a three-pronged attack in the race this year, with all eyes on his shortest-priced runner Auguste Rodin.
However, this Deep Impact colt flopped in the 2000 Guineas last time out and with the Epsom Derby trends telling us 19 of the last 21 winners finished 1st or 2nd last time out – this is a stat Auguste Rodin needs to overcome.
Yes, the longer trip is expected to suit Auguste Rodin and many feel he could easily bounce back. However, with this colt getting the pre-race O’Brien spotlight, are his other runners going under the radar?
He runs Adelaide River, who was second to Arrest in the Chester Vase last time, but also has Dee Stakes winner SAN ANTONIO in Saturday’s Derby.
This Dubawi colt got the job done by 1 3/4 lengths that day and has now won both starts this season having also landed a Dundalk Maiden at the end of March.
Breeding suggests the longer trip could eke out more and with just four career runs this Michael Tabor-owned 3 year-old could certainly have more improvement to come – making him an attractive each-way Derby tip.

Two Of The Last Three Derby Winners Came From Stall 12
Another big plus ahead for this best each way Derby tip is that he’s been handed stall 12 and two of the last three winners of this Epsom Classic started the race from this draw.
Last year Desert Crown won from stall 12 , while Aidan O’Brien has also had two Derby winners since 2014 come this this draw – with Serpentine and Australia the horses in question.
Aidan O’Brien No Stranger To Winning The Derby With A Big-Priced Runner
Also, trainer Aidan O’Brien is certianly no stranger to firing in a Derby winner with one of his ‘so-called’ second or third string horses.
Yes, Australia won as the 11/8 favourite for O’Brien in 2014, but he’s also had 25/1 shot Serpentine and 40/1 winner Wings Of Eagles win the race since 2017 for him.
Each way Derby tip, San Antonio will be looking to become the latest big-priced O’Brien Epsom winner.
Kris Kin The Last Dee Stakes Winner To Land The Derby
The Dee Stakes has also thrown up a Derby winner before, when the Sir Michael Stoute-trained Kris Kin did the double in 2003 – winning in the same Saeed Suhail colours as last year’s hero Desert Crown.
