All eyes on the Derby: submit your questions for our special live blog Q&A

The 2025 Derby picture is dominated by Aidan O'Brien after his rampage on the Roodee at Chester and other key trials last week. Sandwiched inbetween the Ballydoyle army is the Charlie Appleby-trained 2,000 Guineas winner Ruling Court which makes it a star-studded affair at the top of the market.

O'Brien has not even unleashed his prime contender yet as The Lion In Winter is let loose at York in the Dante on Thursday. 

Join Maddy Playle immediately after the Dante as she looks forward to the Derby and Oaks and assesses the key players for both in our All Eyes On The Derby live blog Q&A special.

Will it be yet another Derby for Ballydoyle? Will Ruling Court stay? Who of the outsiders represents the best each-way value? Can Desert Flower be taken on in the Oaks?

Readers will be able to ask questions on the day by emailing liveblog@racingpost.com and if you've got any questions in advance you'd like answered submit them now and our top tipster will share her opinions on the Racing Post website and app on Thursday afternoon.
