Romsdal (right): Could still go to the Investec Derby

John Gosden could yet be double handed in the Investec Derby at Epsom with Romsdal potentially joining Western Hymn in the line-up.

The former, beaten a nose by Orchestra in the Chester Vase, will work at Newmarket on Friday to determine whether or not he will be supplemented for the Classic with Royal Ascot a back-up plan.

The trainer said: “He’ll work in Newmarket and see what the owners want to do. He’s in the King Edward at Royal Ascot, so it’s up to them.”

Stablemate Western Hymn, who defeated Snow Sky in April and subsequently won Sandown’s Classic Trial, is very much on course for Epsom after he enjoyed a nice workout under William Buick at the track during Thursday’s Breakfast With The Stars event..

Gosden added: “Western Hymn enjoyed coming here today. He handled the hill, switched his legs very well and his head carriage is better.”
