Curragh more likely than Epsom for Harzand Dermot Weld is leaning towards the Irish Derby with Harzand in preference to the Investec Derby at Epsom. An impressive winner of the Ballysax Stakes last month, the Sea The Stars colt has recently had his form franked. Moonlight Magic, Idaho and Beacon Rock dominated the Derrinstown Derby Trial but they were all behind Harzand at Leopardstown. Weld said: "He's a nice horse but he does want ease in the ground. I possibly see him as more of an Irish Derby horse. "The form of his win looks good and he's very well in himself. "I'm not going to say he won't run in the Epsom Derby but I see him as a horse for the second part of the year. "He's a big, galloping horse and Pat (Smullen) said after his last run that he might be the type for the English St Leger."
