Hot favourite New London heads a field of nine for Saturday’s Cazoo St Leger at Doncaster, live on Sky Sports Racing.
The Dubawi colt has won four of his five career outings with his sole defeat coming in the Chester Vase on testing ground.
With the St Leger winner Masked Marvel among his relatives, Charlie Appleby will be hoping to add to last year’s win in the race with Hurricane Lane.
His main market rival is Roger Varian’s Eldar Eldarov, another who has only met with one defeat in his career to date, last time out in the Grand Prix de Paris.
Prior to that he had won the Queen’s Vase at Royal Ascot over the St Leger trip and Varian feels his charge will be better for going there fresh.
