Latest details from around the tracks on French Derby day at Chantilly
![Last year's French Derby finish at Chantilly](/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com%2Fprod-media-racingpost%2Fprod%2Fimages%2F169_1008%2Ffdf71f0955cf-62696.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
It is another day and indeed another Derby day, as the French version, the Prix du Jockey Club (3.25), takes centre stage at Chantilly.
There is also an Oaks with Nottingham hosting its county's version (3.55), a Listed race that has Sun Maiden as favourite to give Epsom heroine Anapurna's sire Frankel another, albeit lesser, Oaks.
Listowel has attracted big fields for the Flat meeting in Ireland with Kilbeggan also racing over the jumps. Fakenham flies the jumps flag in Britain but is again not rewarded for good prize-money, with just 29 declared for six races.

RPTV has been to visit Joseph O'Brien to find out how he has transformed from Group 1-winning jockey to a leading trainer.
Tom Marquand had winners at Epsom and Lingfield yesterday so what better time to rerun his Mastermind feature.

Time to concentrate on the cricket World Cup with football finished for the season and the Postcast team works through the matches up to Thursday.
The French Open tennis continues and Aaron Ashley has the bets for today.
Final thought
It is hard to believe Aidan O'Brien has yet to win a French Derby and his three contenders look to have it all to do against Andre Fabre's trio as the French champion seeks a fifth win in the Prix du Jockey Club (3.25).
