Fallon To Ride Horatio Nelson

Following the news that Kieren Fallon is to ride Horatio Nelson in this Saturday's Epsom Derby VC Bet have slashed the Aidan O'Brien colt from 8-1 to 5-1 and eased Septimus, Fallon's likely ride, from 4-1 to 9-2.

Neal Wilkins from VC Bet commented "The word is that Horatio Nelson, who disappointed in the 2,000 Guinmeas, worked all over the Dante winner Septimus at Ballydoyle this morning making it an easy decision for Fallon over his coice of Derby ride. In the next few days we expect continued support for Horatio Nelson, given Fallon's superb record in the Derby, and we also expect Septimus to drift like the Kontiki!"
