(credit: Daniel Matthew) Related Articles See all Racing news Share it Pin It Godolphin's dual Newmarket winner Ocean War looks all set to represent the operation's only hope in the Epsom Derby. At one stage it looked as though the boys in blue may be triple handed for the major Epsom classic but the failure of Genius Beast in the French 2,000 Guineas last weekend may have reduced the yard's options.Ocean War is 20/1 to win the Investec Epsom Derby with bet365, while the current favourite is The Queen's horse Carlton House at 13/8 to win the classic race.And it is now beginning to look as if the highly regarded Casamento is more likely to be directed to the French Derby at Chantilly on 5th June.A statement on the Godolphin website - explaining that the three are left in the Epsom classic - added that Ocean War is the most likely runner of the trio at Epsom Downs, though he could be joined by Genius Beast although he has the Group Two King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot (17th June) as an alternative target.All three runners are housed at Mahmood Al Zarooni's Newmarket yard at Moulton Paddocks.'War' was a nice winner at Newmarket on 13th April when he beat Maqaraat a length before going on to put Cai Shen in his place by a comfortable two-and-three-quarters lengths. Impressive young jockey Mickael Barzalona rode him on both occasions and it will be interesting to see whether the France-based 19-year-old will get the ride or whether Frankie Dettori will get the leg up.
