St Leger Form and Betting Tips

The St Leger form is so difficult to weigh up and usually one looks to the English and Irish Derby's to see who may have needed the extra two furlongs. They say that the best St Leger form is always the classic form but remember that these three year olds are not machines and they will only take so much racing. Another good form guide is the Great Voltigeur Stakes at York's Ebor meeting as the leading players in this race are often at the forefront of the St Leger Betting.

A St Leger tip would be to look at the entries from Aiden O'Brien and Saedeed Bin Suroor as they have very good recent records in this big race. Another factor to consider when assessing your St Ledger selection is to have a horse that goes on a softer surface as by September the ground conditions are usually on the softer side of good.
