The Scottish Derby final will be decided at Shawfield tonight and even without Derby treble chasing Barnfield On Air it should be a cracker.

Speed Figs

T1 - Tyrur Kieran 100
T5 - Loyal Honcho 92
T2 - Kylegrove Top 79
T4 - Killough Tale 71
T6 - Bubbly Totti 67+
T3 - Pond Gallileo 49

Tyrur Kieran and Loyal Honcho are clear on the figures after their 1-2 in the first semi-final on Wednesday when Paul Hennessy's dog did the clock.

There should be a tremendous battle up front with Tyrur Kieran and Kylegrove Top blazing a trail to the first bend. If Tyrur Kieran gets round unscathed he will be difficult to stop, Loyal Honcho and Bubbly Totti (who is capable of going quicker than he has so far) look likely to be chasing the leaders down and will be ready to take advantage of any trouble on the inside.

It looks like being a great final but having already backed Loyal Honcho at 10/1 ante-post I'm not going to make any further investment in this one.

Afer the controversy of the opening round the Scottish Derby has got back on track with some good racing including a track record for Tyrur Kieran. The final is live on Sky Sports 2 tonight with coverage starting at 8:00p.m. I try to post a preview of the big race shortly but in the meantime here's the draw -
