O'Brien targeting Irish Derby for Lambourn

- By MICHAEL HENNESSY

AIDAN O'Brien considers the Irish Derby the most likely next port of call for Lambourn following his Epsom heroics on Saturday.

A son of dual Derby winner Australia, the three-year-old made virtually every yard of the running in the premier Classic under Wayne Lordan, providing O'Brien with his 11th Betfred Derby success.

Speaking on Racing TV's Luck on Sunday programme, the Ballydoyle handler reported his three Derby runners to have returned home none the worse, with Lambourn’s stablemates Delacroix and The Lion In Winter set to drop back in trip after finishing ninth and 14th respectively.

“The horses have been out for a walk and a pick of grass (this morning) and everybody seems very happy with them,” said O'Brien.
