Washington options open

Aidan O'Brien has not ruled out the possibility of Washington Irving running in the Vodafone Derby at Epsom on June 7.

Washington Irving was sent off favourite for the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial at Leopardstown on Sunday but proved no match for Dermot Weld's Casual Conquest.

"I thought Washington Irving ran quite well. He seems to have come out of the race well and we'll see how he progresses over the next few weeks. He will appreciate a mile and a half," the Ballydoyle trainer told the Racing Post.

Setanta readers' comment of the day

“Storm in a tea cup. Dementieva's English isn't 100% and her comments have been totally misinterpreted. There was no suggestion of a fix at all. All she meant was that the championship would be decided between the sisters. Not that Serena or Venus would conspire to fix the result. Lost in translation anyone?”
