The only other horse from the 2000 Guineas was Mars, going off at 12–1.

Ruler of the World, who would go on to win this year's Derby, was ridden by Ryan Moore, after fellow jockey Joseph O'Brien elected to ride Battle of Marengo. Both Battle of Marengo and Ruler of the World were trained by Aidan O'Brien from Ballydoyle, who is Joseph's father. O'Brien would train five of the twelve horses in the race, also including Mars, Flying the Flag, and Festive Cheer. At the start of the race, favourite Dawn Approach showed little discipline, and was out of the running by the first furlong. Though he led briefly at the one-mile mark, he would fall to the back of the pack and finished last, half a length behind Ocean Applause. Early in the straight Ruler of the World overtook his stable companion Battle of Marengo and established a clear advantage which he maintained throughout the final quarter mile and won by a length and a half. Libertarian finished strongly, overtaking several horses in the closing strides to finish second ahead of Galileo Rock and Battle of Marengo. Following the race, winning jockey Ryan Moore stated "I planned to be a bit closer but I just didn’t get away very well —- it was a very messy race." Trainer Aiden O'Brien, on winning his fifth Derby stated that Ruler of the World "quickened up well that day and won like a very good horse."Investec Derby Winning Quotes http://www.epsomdowns.co.uk/sites/default/files/pdf/derby2013a.pdf Epsom Downs Racecourse 2 June 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20130722020525/http://www.epsomdowns.co.uk/sites/default/files/pdf/derby2013a.pdf 22 July 2013 dead Race details Sponsor: Investec Winner's prize money: £782,314 Going: Good Number of runners: 12 Winner's time: 2 minutes, 39.06 seconds Full result Dist * Horse Jockey Trainer SP1Ruler of the WorldRyan MooreAidan O'Brien7-121½LibertarianWilliam BuickElaine Burke14-13shdGalileo RockWayne LordanDavid Wachman25-14shdBattle of MarengoJoseph O'BrienAidan O'Brien11-25½OcovangoPierre-Charles BoudotAndré Fabre8-161½MarsRichard HughesAidan O'Brien12-17nseChopinJamie SpencerAndreas Wohler12-182¼Flying the FlagColm O'DonoghueAidan O'Brien66-191¼MirsaaleNeil CallanJames Tate50-1104½Festive CheerSeamie HeffernanAidan O'Brien25-11121Ocean ApplauseDaragh O'DonohoeJohn Ryan200-112½Dawn ApproachKevin ManningJim Bolger5-4 F Winner details Further details of the winner, Ruler of the World: Foaled: 17 March 2010, in Ireland Sire: Galileo; Dam: Love Me True (Kingmambo) Owner: Derrick Smith, Sue Magnier and Michael Tabor Breeder: Southern Bloodstock Form analysis Two-year-old races Notable runs by the future Derby participants as two-year-olds in 2012: Dawn Approach – 1st in Coventry Stakes, 1st in Vincent O'Brien Stakes, 1st in Dewhurst Stakes Battle of Marengo – 1st in Beresford Stakes The road to Epsom Early-season appearances in 2013 and trial races prior to running in the Derby: Dawn Approach – 1st in 2000 Guineas Ruler of the World – 1st in Chester Vase Libertarian – 1st in Dante Stakes Battle of Marengo – 1st in Ballysax Stakes, 1st in Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial Ocavango – 1st in Prix Greffulhe Chopin – 1st in Dr. Busch-Memorial Festive Cheer – 2nd in Prix Hocquart Subsequent Group 1 wins Group 1 / Grade I victories after running in the Derby: Dawn Approach – St. James's Palace Stakes (2013) Subsequent breeding careers Leading progeny of participants in the 2013 Epsom Derby.http://galopp-sieger.de/ Stammtafeln Galopp Sieger Galopp Sieger April 28, 2020https://www.racingpost.com/search/?tab=profiles&page=1&query=&profiles_type=horses_profiles Profiles Search Racing Post April 28, 2020 16 June 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20200616170102/https://www.racingpost.com/search/?tab=profiles&page=1&query=&profiles_type=horses_profiles dead https://www.pedigreequery.com/ Progeny Reports Pedigree Query Pedigree Query April 28, 2020 Sires of Group/Grade One winners Ruler of the World (1st) Iridessa – 1st Fillies' Mile (2018), 1st Matron Stakes, 1st Pretty Polly Stakes (Ireland), 1st Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf (2019) Other Stallions Dawn Approach (12th) – Musis Amica (2nd Prix De Diane 2018), Mary Tudor (3rd Irish Oaks 2018), Madhmoon (2nd Epsom Derby (2019)Ocovango (5th) – Langer Dan – 1st Wensleydale Juvenile Hurdle (2019)Battle Of Marengo (4th) – Sired flat and jumps winnersLibertarian (2nd) – Offspring yet to race, several sold as storesFlying The Flag (8th) – Exported to South Africa References Epsom Derby Epsom Derby Epsom Derby 2013 Category:2010s in Surrey
