History says he will be hard to beat with so much in hand.
Sea The Stars is available at [4.2] on Betfair for tomorrow's Investec Derby and Timeform ratings suggest that represents excellent value.
Because they have the 2,000 Guineas winner 6lb clear of the Epsom field, with the prospect of better to come.
To put that into Derby-winning context, New Approach was 5lb clear with Timeform prior to winning last year, and Authorized had 4lb in hand going into the 2007 renewal.
Kieran Packman, Timeform's spokesman, commented: "Sea The Stars has already shown he has the class and ability to win the Derby, and whilst acknowledging his stamina isn't assured, we don't think his current odds reflect how much improvement his rivals will need to make.
"His Guineas win is high-class and rock-solid form, he's a big, lengthy, good sort who towered over most of the Guineas field and he very much has the laid-back disposition to take the Derby experience in his stride.
"He's with a trainer who has an excellent record at this level and the fact that Sea The Stars still has his 'p' underlines that he himself can find improvement on his Newmarket effort. He should prove very difficult to beat on Saturday."
