WATCH: Constitution River lights up Paris | The Front Page

Aidan O'Brien delivered the latest tour de force in his extraordinary career at Chantilly on Sunday when sending out the first, second and third in the French Derby.

In this week's edition of The Front Page, we salute the trainer and the brilliant horse who brought him more Classic success in France. Lee Mottershead, Chris Cook and Liam Headd assess the merits of Constitution River, consider how good he might be and ask would he have won the Derby if he had been sent to Epsom.

The team look at who will now win at Epsom and look forward to Royal Ascot while also examining not one but two controversies in Ireland.
