Item makes Epsom Derby case with Dante win at York

Advertisements

Item appears a serious Epsom Derby contender after his unbeaten run continued with a win in the Dante Stakes at York.

A son of racing great Frankel, the 11-2 priced Item had won both of his races as a juvenile and was ridden confidently by Colin Keane to claim the statement win.

In his first run of the season, Andrew Balding-trained Item stayed close to race leader Action before pulling away in the final furlong to finish nearly three lengths clear, with Action (4-1) and the 11-4 favourite Christmas Day running in second and third.

The result presents owners Juddmonte with another Derby prospect after Legacy Link won the Musidora on Wednesday.
