HENRYTHENAVIGATOR had a classic winner at the weekend – but not one that you might have heard too much about. His three-year-old daughter Dorcia caused an upset when she won the 100th Svenskt (Swedish) Derby, the outsider of four runners for her trainer Lennart Reuterskiold Jnr who landed the race last year also.

The first Swedish Derby was staged in July 1918 at Jägersro Racecourse in Malmö, the home of the race since. The Derby this year was worth a record 3,000,000 SEK (€315 000).
