High-class stayer SCANDINAVIA has strong claims to make it 8 wins on the bounce. Jan Brueghel should relish the step back up in distance and could make it a 1-2 for Aidan O'Brien, while Trustyourinstinct isn't one to underestimate following his stylish win in the Curragh Cup last time.

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: Scandinavia might not get things all its own way near the head of affairs but shouldn’t be held back by that alone: The forecast decent pace still isn’t likely to sway the advantage towards those usually ridden further back such as is Trustyourinstinct.

Individual Price Hint: Scandinavia has traded at more than 2 times Betfair SP 3 times when winning during its last 5 starts: Arabian Force has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 5 starts.
