Twenty colts remain in contention at the penultimate declaration stage on Monday .

Delacroix , the comfortable winner of Leopardstown ’s main Derby trial, heads the ante-post betting at a top price of 11 -4.

Ruling Court little more than a point behind on 4-1 and Pride Of Arras , the unbeaten Dante winner, next at 9-2 .

The Lion In Winter is a single-figure price despite his defeat in the Dante .

The One An Oaks success on Desert Flower would complete the set of British Classics for trainer and rider.

No jockey has ridden the first four Classic winners in a season.

Ruling Court would set up an attempt to become the first Triple Crown winner since 1970 in September ’s St Leger .
