Tote World Pool Guide – Epsom Derby 2026

The Betfred Derby is the centrepiece of the British Flat calendar, and this year’s renewal sits inside one of the most pedigree-rich cards Epsom has staged in recent memory: four Frankel colts contest the Classic itself, alongside the older horses’ Group 1 Coronation Cup, two Group 3s, and four competitive handicaps. Going is reported Good to Soft on the round course, with the straight five-furlong strip drying faster and riding closer to Good. This is our race-by-race breakdown of Derby Day at Epsom, produced in partnership with the Tote. For each of the eight races, we lay out what the EquiAnalytix TPR model sees, where the data aligns with the market, and where it disagrees. The full eight-race card forms part of Tote World Pool, and the Tote Placepot runs across the first six races.
