Leger beckons for Beauty

PROFOUND Beauty will face seven rivals as she bids for a first Group One success in the Irish Field St Leger at the Curragh this weekend.

Dermot Weld’s six-year-old is one of the leading fancies for the Melbourne Cup in November after winning three of her four starts this term.

She faced another possible challenger for the Australian prize as Jeremy Noseda’s Sans Frontieres bids to book his ticket to Flemington Park on his first outing at the highest level.
