Arrest can give Frank theperfect swansong

Arrest can get the hearts of his supporters racing as he bids to give Frankie Dettori the perfect Epsom swansong by triumphing in the Betfred Derby.

Twice a winner of the premier Classic aboard Authorized (2007) and Golden Horn (2015), the 52-year-old's career is tailor-made for Hollywood scriptwriters and he can have his blockbuster ending on the Surrey Downs.

The most recent of D et tor i' s two Derby triumphs came for trainer John Gosden, who along with son Thady, is responsible for preparing Arrest for his date with destiny on Saturday.

And the signs are promising judged on what the son of Frank el has shown so far.

Always held in the highest of regard by the team at Clarehaven, the colt built on a third-placed debut to score twice at a mile before tackling a Group One assignment in his final start of the season, when beaten a short-head by the reopposing Dubai Mile over 10 furlongs in the Criterium de Saint-Cloud.

That performance highlighted Arrest's Classic potential and he looked much more the finished article on his sea-sonal re appearance at Chester when blitzing the field in the Chester Vase.

Dettori kicked for home early on the Roodee and with stamina assured, plus a pleasingtrack reconnaissance complete during a recent gallops morning, Derby number three could be about to head the way of racing's retiring hero.

There could be further success for the Gosdens on the Surrey Downs with Torito, who makes his handicap bow in the Betfred Lester Piggott Handicap.

The Kingman three-yearold held a Derby entry for most of the spring and that race must have come into calculations when shedding his maiden tag with a promising run at Nottingham in April.

He went on to push Derby contender Artistic Star close in a hot Sandown novice event recently and now steps into the handicap ranks off a mark of 95, with the potential to rate a good bit higher.

The action kicks off with the Betfred Diomed Stakes where Ko ls aicanl and a blow for trainer Roger Varian.

A likeable colt, he was not disgraced in second behind Canberra Legend in the Feilden Stakes on his return and had no luck at all in running when again runner-up at Goodwood last time.

He arguably would still have finished second best to Cicero's Gift even with a clear passage then, but that rival looks a Group race performer and there is a lot to like about Kolsai's

form this season as he receives plenty of weight from older rivals this time.

Roman Mist can go two places better than last year's third to take home the Princess Elizabeth Stakes trophy in the race that follows the Derby.
