Lambourn stuns red-hot favourite Delacroix to land master trainer Aidan O'Brien an 11th Derby

The Irish Sun07-06-2025
AIDAN O'BRIEN'S No2 Lambourn stunned his big hope Delacroix to land the Derby - as a load of the big guns flopped in the £1.5million Epsom blockbuster.
Lambourn, who was sent off 13-2, hit the front early and was never for catching under loyal jockey Wayne Lordan.

Ryan Moore never really got into it on red-hot favourite Delacroix and finished ninth, beaten 16 lengths.
And, for once, the world's best jockey had to play second best to Lordan - who he beat into second in the Oaks on Friday.
There was a huge result for syndicate Middleham Park as their 50-1 Lazy Griff, trained by Charlie Johnston, came second.
While Aidan's son Joseph was third with 28-1 Tennessee Stud.

Juddmonte had the fourth home with 50-1 New Ground.
O'Brien said: "Wayne gave him an incredible ride - he is a great fella and has done so much hard work throughout the years.
"The horse is very straightforward and Wayne knew he would stay.
"I'm delighted for Wayne and couldn't be happier.
