Punters' pessimism about Henry for Derby
by Johnny Ward, 16 May 2008
Punters have little faith in Henrythenavigator's Vodafone Derby claims, according to the results of a setantasports.com poll.
We asked "Do you think Henrythenavigator could win the Derby?"
There was a large response to the poll, with seven voters saying he could not win the Derby for every five who believed that the colt is not a forlorn hope.
Therefore, over 58 per cent of punters discounted the son of Kingmambo's claims in the race, even though trainer Aidan O'Brien is considering an Epsom bid.
Henrythenavigator is generally a 12-1 chance for the Derby.
