Horse racing-Lambourn wins Epsom Derby for O'Brien
Horse Racing - The Epsom Derby - Epsom Downs Racecourse, Surrey, Britain - June 7, 2025 Wayne Lordan riding Lambourn on his way to winning the 15:30 Betfred Derby Action Images via Reuters/Matthew Childs EPSOM, England (Reuters) -Front-running Lambourn roared to victory in the 246th running of the Epsom Derby on Saturday, a record-extending 11th win in the race for trainer Aidan O'Brien. Lambourn, who went into the race at 13-2, set a blistering gallop under jockey Wayne Lordan to beat the Charlie Johnston-trained Lazy Griff into second place. The win marked an Oaks-Derby double for O'Brien after Minnie Hauk battled to victory in the fillies' Classic on Friday, relegating previously unbeaten favourite Desert Flower into third. Chester Vase winner Lambourn was not the most fancied of O'Brien's runners in the race but favourite Delacroix, under jockey Ryan Moore, and The Lion In Winter were unable to make an impression in the running. Tennessee Stud, a 28-1 shot, finished in third. (Reporting by Virginia Furness; editing by Clare Fallon)
