The 2011 Epsom Derby was the 232nd running of the Derby horse race which took place at Epsom Downs Racecourse, England, on 4 June 2011.

The race was won by second-favourite Pour Moi, the first Derby winner to have been trained in France since Empery in 1976.

The winning horse was ridden by jockey Mickael Barzalona and was trained by André Fabre. Pour Moi beat Treasure Beach by a head; Carlton House, the pre-race favourite at 5/2, finished third by three-quarters of a length.[1] Carlton House was owned by Elizabeth II.[2]
