Lambourn gives Aidan O'Brien a record-extending 11th victory in the Derby

  • Lambourn, ridden by Wayne Lordan, won the 246th Betfred Derby on June 7, 2025, at Epsom Downs Racecourse, giving trainer Aidan O'Brien his 11th victory in the event.
  • After finishing as runner-up to stablemate Delacroix in his initial outing of the year, Lambourn showed potential and was regarded as the third option among O'Brien's Derby contenders before making a significant step forward.
  • Lordan took the initiative early, leading almost all the way, with the 50-1 outsider Lazy Griff finishing second and Joseph O'Brien's Tennessee Stud in third.
  • Trainer O'Brien praised Lordan for giving Lambourn an 'incredible ride' and described the colt as a 'very fit, genuine horse' with strong stamina likely to excel further at the Irish Derby or St Leger.
  • This victory extended O'Brien's record in the Derby and underscored Lordan's return after serious injury, suggesting Lambourn could target further prestigious races such as the St Leger.
