Lingfield Derby Trial

Lingfield Derby Trial

The Lingfield Derby Trial is a Group 3 flat horse race in the United Kingdom for three-year-old thoroughbred colts and geldings. It is run over a distance of 1 mile 3 furlongs and 106 yards (2,310 m) at Lingfield Park Racecourse in May.

It is one of the main trial races for the Epsom Derby, and the undulating, left-handed course at Lingfield bears a close resemblance to the course at Epsom. It was first run in 1932 and the very first winner, April the Fifth, trained by the actor Tom Walls went on to win that year's Derby [http://www.horseracinghistory.co.uk/hrho/action/viewDocument?id=1017] . The seven subsequent Derby winners to have won this trial are Mid-day Sun, Tulyar, Parthia, Teenoso, Slip Anchor, Kahyasi and High-Rise.

Winners since 1986
