About five hours before Saturday's Belmont Stakes (gr. I), England will know the results of its Vodafone Epsom Derby (Eng-I). Fourteen horses are entered for the 12-furlong race, and four trainers have multiple entries, including a foursome scheduled to run for Barry Hills.

A total of seven races are to be run Saturday at Epsom, with races two through seven sponsored by Vodafone. Listed races will be run before and after the Derby, with the group III Diomed being run just prior to the feature.
