Sky Bet report more significant support for Rip Van Winkle in their 'What will Johnny Murtagh ride' at Epsom market with the Ballydoyle stable jockey cut for a second time on Friday.

He was initially shortened to 9/4 from 5/1 to partner the 2000 Guineas fourth at Epsom and is now 7/4 to do so.

As a result the current Derby favourite Fame And Glory is now 2/5 from 1/4 to be partnered by Murtagh.

Matt Doyle of Sky Bet said: "If Euros talk then Johnny will be staying loyal to his Guineas partner and turning down the ride on the current favourite."

Rip Van Winkle has also been very well backed in the outright Derby betting with the same firm and is 7/1 from 9/1. In contrast Fame And Glory is out to 11/4 (from 5/2).


5 + 3 = ?
