BETFRED have really rolled out the betting carpet with their sponsorship of the St Leger meeting, with the obvious highlight being the final and longest classic of the season due off at 3:40 with just seven set to go to post and three of them trained by Aidan O’Brien.
Jan Brueghel may well be the best of the trio long term, but he still looked very green when landing the Gordon Stakes at Glorious Goodwood, and although he is bred to adore the extra two-and-a half furlongs here, that greenness may resurface, and he won’t have the assistance of Ryan Moore (riding in Ireland) to help him out this time.
The stable’s apparent number one, Illinois, arguably has the best form of the team courtesy of his staying on seconds in the Grand Prix de Paris and Great Voltigeur Stakes behind Sosie and Los Angeles respectively.
