Lanigan so proud of Main effort.

David Lanigan was over the moon with the effort of Main Sequence in the Investec Derby.
The Lingfield Derby Trial winner surrendered his unbeaten record, but lost nothing in defeat as he got up on the line to claim second from Astrology, stablemate of the impressive winner Camelot.
Lanigan would not confirm a tilt at the Irish Derby would be next on the agenda, preferring instead to take stock of things after the dust has settled.

Stone springs surprise in Dash.
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sun
Quote:
John Best's Stone Of Folca sprang a 50-1 shock in the Investec Specialist Bank 'Dash' at Epsom under Luke Morris.
The four-year-old had shown little promise in recent starts and looked to be up against it from a wide draw, but he got off to smart start and soon tacked across to the near side.
He made his way to the front and although Desert Law was finishing off strongly in the last of the five furlongs, Stone Of Folca was always doing enough to hold on by half a length.

Mick Channon's Chilworth Icon ran out a narrow winner of the Investec Woodcote Stakes at Epsom under Martin Harley.
The trainer-jockey combination enjoyed their first Classic success with Samitar in last weekend's Irish 1000 Guineas and struck again with this 12-1 shot.

Music can't reach pinnacle.

Set To Music narrowly failed to give The Queen a notable success as part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations when second in the Grosvenor Casinos Pinnacle Stakes at Haydock.
The filly could not quite get to the game Shimmering Surf (9-1), who held off all-comers in the closing stages.
