Verdict

Charlie Appleby can secure a first St Leger win with Irish Derby hero HURRICANE LANE who spreadeagled his field in the Grand Prix de Paris and holds a clear form edge. There is little to worry about on the score of his stamina too with his dam a 2m winner. Gordon Stakes victor Ottoman Emperor looks the one to chase him home, with The Mediterranean appealing as the pick of Aidan O'Brien's quartet.

  1. HURRICANE LANE (IRE)
  2. OTTOMAN EMPEROR (IRE)
  3. THE MEDITERRANEAN (IRE)
