Formscan By Tom Weekes - This is a fascinating rematch between Royal Ascot-winning stablemates GSTAAD and True Love, as the pair previously met in a May maiden. Gstaad won that Navan race on his debut run before producing a top class effort to land the Coventry Stakes. He is 4lb ‘wrong’ with high-class True Love on ratings today but should continue progressing being a half-brother to Vandeek, who won two autumn Group 1 races as a juvenile. True Love readily landed the Queen Mary at Ascot and then effortlessly accounted for stablemate Puerto Rico to win the Railway Stakes. Puerto Rico’s subsequent Richmond Stakes-form ties in with the selection’s form, so a cracking race is in store. Green Sense narrowly won a Chantilly Group 2 last month.
