Aidan O'Brien won the last two renewals of Britain's oldest Classic and looks to hold chances once more. SCANDINAVIA (5) is relatively new to the staying division and is considered following a commanding win in the 2m G1 Goodwood Cup. The G1 English and Irish Derby winning LAMBOURN (3) didn't have the race run to suit when fifth in the G2 Great Voltigeur Stakes and will likely do much better now up in trip with that outing under his belt. G2 Queen's Vase winner CARMERS (1) finished an excellent second in the previously-mentioned G2 Great Voltigeur Stakes and will appreciate going back up in distance. STAY TRUE (6) was fourth that day and also warrants plenty of consideration maintaining an unexposed profile.
