Aidan O'Brien will saddle both Grand Central and Down Mexico Way in the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial Stakes at Leopardstown on Sunday.
The Ballydoyle handler is hopeful his pair can follow in the footsteps of Yeats, High Chaparral and Galileo, who won the Group Two contest in 2004, 2002 and 2001 respectively.
Grand Central appears to be his leading Derby hope of the two and is a general 20-1 shot for the blue riband after finishing runner-up to John Oxx's Alayan on his three-year-old debut last month.
"We are running Down Mexico Way to skip along in front," said O'Brien.
"Grand Central has improved since his run at Leopardstown and I was happy with him that day as he got tired and Kieren (Fallon) was easy on him."
Alayan, who won two of his four starts as a juvenile, reopposes and takes another step in class after his smooth success in the Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial Stakes.
Dermot Weld is responsible for Bobs Pride. His Marju colt is unbeaten in two outings this season, with his latest success coming in the Ballysax Stakes last month.
The field is completed by David Wachman's unbeaten Fracas, who followed up a smooth maiden win with victory in the Group Three Betfred Classic Trial at Sandown, the form of which was boosted by Hattan at Chester yesterday.
