Expect a shock on the cards at Doncaster

It’s the final classic of the season, the William Hill St Leger at Doncaster and we could well be in for a massive shock with very little form wise between the whole field.

REKINDLING is one of only two horses (the other being Stradivarius) to race beyond and mile-and-a-half and he has shown great resolution and indeed class on both occasions.

First, he beat that good yardstick Wicklow Brave in the Curragh Cup and then improved again on that run when second to the ultra-smart former Ascot Gold Cup hero Order of St George in the Irish St Leger.
