Aidan O'Brien holds a very strong hand in his bid to land a third successive Leger with LAMBOURN and Scandinavia both leading contenders on form. There's little to separate them in truth, with the former earning the narrow vote given he’s expected to bounce back to something like his Derby form, having looked and shaped as if better for the outing in the Great Voltigeur at York last time. Carmers shouldn't be at all underestimated however, especially as a return to this trip could unlock more.
