Storm brews at Epsom over the 150-1 Derby outsider and his genius owner who wins millions with bargain horses
THERE is a storm brewing at Epsom - and not just with the weather. While the rain is set to pour on the Downs - and thunder and hail are forecast - there could be a tornado on the track. 1 Super shrewd owner Ahmad Al Shaikh has won a fortune from his bargain runners in the Derby - and he has another 150-1 outsider primed to strike this year Credit: PA Al Wasl Storm is the 150-1 outsider bookies are giving no hope in hell of winning the world's most prestigious Flat race. But his owner Ahmad Al Shaikh, a Dubai businessman who loves staying horses, knows exactly what it takes to plunder huge cheques with bargain basement horses. And he's done it loads before in the Derby. Hoo Ya Mal was a 150-1 runner-up in 2022 - his valiant second securing his owner a cheque for £350,000 before he sold him to Australia for £1.2million. A blinding bit of business as the horse has never bettered that second-place finish. Khalifa Sat was second two years before that at whopping odds of 50-1, landing Al Shaikh a cheque for just north of £100,000. When 25-1 Deira Mile and 50-1 Sayedaty Sadaty were fourth and fifth respectively last year, the gravelly-voiced Al Shaikh left Epsom a staggering £125,000 better off. In a world where horses are routinely sold for seven figures, Al Shaikh refuses to ever spend more than £80,000 - even though he and his Green Team operation have combined to win over £1m in recent years. Most read in Horse Racing For every purchase, he goes through their pedigrees himself (paying particular attention to the third dam) making sure they match what he likes. Which brings us back to Al Wasl Storm. Trained by Owen Burrows, the three-year-old colt was bought for just £5,900 at the sales in November 2022. He was dead last on debut at Newbury in April then came second to fellow Derby runner Rogue Impact at Lingfield. His last run was his best, winning over the 1m4f Derby trip at Chester and staying on well to the line. The £20,616 Al Shaikh, under the Green Team banner, pocketed there was nice. But it's an amazing £900,000 for winning the Derby - and the potential in stud fees as a result is practically unlimited. As an example, former Derby winner Galileo was rumoured to charge £600,000 a cover at stud before he died. So while the likes of Aidan O'Brien's Delacroix and Charlie Appleby's Ruling Court head the market, if you fancy one at a price keep looking further and further down the racecard. All the way to 150-1, where you find Al Wasl Storm. History shows he is bound to outrun his odds.

‘I'd back her in the Derby' – Legendary jockey says £325,000 Epsom Oaks runner is an absolute good thing
LEGENDARY jockey Kieren Fallon says the £325,000 winner of the Oaks is a 'foregone conclusion' - and he'd even back her in the Derby. Ryan Moore has opted to ride Aidan O'Brien's Minnie Hauk in the prestigious Group 1 for fillies and the dream duo have combined to win two of the past five renewals. Advertisement 1 Kieran Fallon says there is no way 1,000 Guineas winner Desert Flower will be beaten in Friday's Oaks Credit: PA But Fallon is certain Desert Flower is an absolute good thing this year. Charlie Appleby's Godolphin three-year-old - who will be ridden by William Buick - was awesome in winning the 1,000 Guineas last month. And Fallon believes there are absolutely no question marks over her ability to stay the 1m4f trip on the Downs. The six-time former champion jockey - who recently Advertisement "I think the "She settles and will switch off nicely and she will be fine over the trip and she will go on any ground. "She's the nicest filly I've seen in a long time and I thought she would maybe even be good enough to beat the colts." Fallon knows what he is talking about. Advertisement Most read in Horse Racing He won the Oaks four times between 1997 and 2006 and bagged the Derby three times in six years from 1999. Buick and Appleby combined to land the 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas last month. And their superstar colt Ruling Court is joint-fav with O'Brien's Delacroix to win his second Classic in a row in Saturday's £1.5million But Fallon, who rides out at Appleby's Moulton Paddocks base, isn't so sure on his credentials. Advertisement He added: "Maybe it's best to stick with Ryan Moore and the draw for Delacroix (in 14) doesn't really matter if the horse is good enough. "Ruling Court has lots of speed and won the best trial, but will he stay? "I think Delacroix is guaranteed to stay whereas Ruling Court isn't. "He's a horse with a lot of speed, but if there is a bit of cut in the ground it might not be ideal. Advertisement "Aidan has a great record in the race and you have to respect that, but it would be a very nice double if Charlie could do it."
