Epsom Derby 2023 odds
This is arguably the most open Epsom Derby in recent years.
Auguste Rodin was the longtime ante-post favourite but drifted out on the back of his 2000 Guineas flop.
He has come in for support since then around the 3-1 mark, with Military Order around the same.
Passenger was cut into around 11-2 following his agonising Dante run where he just couldn’t find room.
While Dettori’s mount Arrest is 6-1.
We’ll bring you all the odds once bookies weigh up their liabilities after decs.

Epsom Derby prediction
Military Order is a brother to 2021 winner Adayar.
Already Military Order has won the races Adayar couldn’t – suggesting he could be ahead of his brother at the same stages in their careers.
His win round the tight and twisting Lingfield in the trial was mega impressive, especially as that track is the opposite of what suits him.
The Godolphin runners are big brutes, unflashy and Military Order looks to be sound, aware of what his job is.
