Vodafone DerbyThe Vodafone Derby is considered one of the most prestigious flat horse races in the world. It is a Group 1 race, run over 1 mile 4 furlongs and 10 yards, for 3 year old colts and fillies, although fillies rarely participate these days and have an equivalent race in the Oaks.
The race is run on the first weekend in June at Epsom racecourse. It is one of five UK classic races and is the second leg of the English Triple Crown (along with the 2,000 Guineas and the St. Leger). Make the Most from Your Betting on the Derby
