Both the Yorkshire and Irish St Leger's take place this afternoon and I expect Aidan O'Brien to score a double. There's no one to touch Septimus at the Curragh, while at Doncaster Frozen Fire can win against the chief rival,...

Leopardstown abandoned, Haydock too...there will be no selections today

125 Newmarket: Danehill Destiny 210 Goodwood: Patkai 305 The Curragh: Dushbhanna 315 Goodwood: Raven's Pass 335 Newmarket: Duke of Marmalade Had the last race been run as planned at York, I would have backed New Approach, but on Newmarket's faster...

The last day and I go for the following: 240: River Proud 315: Lush Lashes 350: Mac Gille Eoin

I wasn't able to take an interest on Wednesday and yesterday the only thing I could have told was that Yeats would, as he did, win. So today I go for: 215: Tranquil Tiger 250: Gift Horse 330: Cape Hawk...
