The four-year-old gelding by Teofilo now has two Stakes victories on his resume; he capped off 2015 with a win in the Listed Doonside Cup at Ayr.
Bred in Ireland by Knocktoran Stud, Scottish is out of the Stakes-winning mare, Zeiting. He is a full-brother to Royal Empire, winner of the G3 Geoffrey Freer Stakes, and a half-brother to champion Combat Zone.
