Epsom Derby: Hurricane Lane cut to 6/1 after Dante Stakes success

Hurricane Lane is available at 6/1 for next month’s Epsom Derby after an impressive victory in the Dante Stakes at York.

The Godolphin-owned three-year-old finished strongly to beat Megallan by three-quarters of a length on the Knavesmire. High Definition – the 13/8 favourite – could only place third while Roman Empire held on for fourth after making all the running.

Paddy Power traders reacted to Hurricane Lane continuing his unbeaten record by cutting his odds for the world’s greatest flat race from 12/1 to 6/1.

High Definition is priced at 9/2 from 5/1 in our antepost market while Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial Stakes winner Bolshoi Ballet remains the early favourite at 6/4.

Speaking after Hurricane Lane’s victory in the final major trial for the Epsom Derby, jockey William Buick said: “It looked like a strong renewal of the Dante and this race always throws up a Derby candidate.

“This horse is still learning on the job, he jumped out and we got ourselves a nice position where I could just leaved him alone and build him up when I wanted to.

“It rode like a good race, for a trial it was a true-run race.

“I don’t what more you can ask of him. He’s answered every single call. He’ll have to step up again, but he’s got the experience now and he’ll get the mile and a half.”
