Heavens can make it hot for Camelot in Leger

Looking at Great Heavens winning the Irish Oaks at the Curragh last Sunday made you wonder if she might well emerge as a huge threat to Camelot in his bid to emulate Nijinsky and land the Triple Crown at Doncaster in September.

It now looks just about set in stone that Camelot is going to tackle a mile and six and a half furlongs, so it will be a case of much to lose and little to gain for the son of Montjeu.

Certainly, if the ground were to ride on the soft side at Doncaster - far from a remote possibility - then John Gosden’s daughter of Galileo would have to be regarded as a serious threat.
