Lion in Winter is drawn in widest stall ahead of Derby

THE Lion In Winter will have to defy stall 19 if the one-time ante-post favourite for Saturday's Betfred Derby is to bounce back at Epsom, where he has been overlooked by Ryan Moore in favour of Delacroix.

- 

Aidan O'Brien's colt - who will be ridden by Colin Keane - lost his unbeaten record in the Dante and, as well as aiming to emulate Workforce in overcoming defeat at York to prevail in the blue riband, he now has the widest draw of all to overcome.

Stablemate and current market leader Delacroix fared only marginally better in stall 14, while O'Brien's third representative, Lambourn, the Chester Vase winner, is in stall 10 under Wayne Lordan.
