Kingsbarns 'struggling' for Epsom

Quote:
Hopes of Aidan O'Brien's Kingsbarns making it to the Investec Derby at Epsom on June 1 appear to be receding.
The unbeaten colt went into winter quarters as favourite for the premier Classic after a smooth success in the Racing Post Trophy at Doncaster, where he beat subsequent 2000 Guineas third Van Der Neer.
He suffered a setback in March and the Ballydoyle trainer has been facing a race against time, conceding "he is probably not going to make it there".
