The Derby is the richest race in the British racing calendar and is always sure to draw a selection of the finest three-year-old colts to Epsom on the first Saturday in June.

This year will be no different, as owners and trainers aim their charges at races that can both imprint names in racing history and bring significant financial reward through both prize-money and future stud value.

A total of 40 colts remain in the running for the race. This number will be whittled down throughout this month before the race itself on June 1. Click here for an up-to-date list of the top 10 in the Derby betting market.

The final deadline for horses to be scratched from the race is May 21, with confirmations due five days before the race on May 27.

Should connections of a horse not currently listed want to make an entry prior to the race, they will have to pay a £75,000 supplementary fee. The deadline for supplementary entries is also May 27.
