Imperious Japan beats Bangkok to give Aidan O'Brien a 70th royal winner

Japan beats Bangkok to give Aidan O'Brien a 70th royal winner.

Japan won the Derby at Ascot. Ryan Moore rode him well. Aidan O'Brien is celebrating his 70th royal winner of the week. Japan is priced between 12-1 and 16- 1 for Europe's richest race, the St Leger. Andrew Balding lost the race. He is now focusing on America. The trainer is happy with his horses. They are coming forward well after a setback in the spring. Bangkok did not live up to the expectations. It was Andrew's fault. His horse could not compete with the favourite. Mark Cranham is pleased with Japan. Wayne rides him. O’Brien was happy to have his horse win the derby.
