Eight oppose Fame at Curragh

Fame And Glory will be aiming to give the Ballydoyle team a Classic double as he leads nine contenders for tomorrow’s Gain Horse Feeds Irish St Leger at the Curragh.

Trainer Aidan O’Brien is planning to take a helicopter to the track after watching Triple Crown-seeking Camelot try to complete his hat-trick in the Ladbrokes St Leger at Doncaster.

Fame And Glory could finish only fourth at the Curragh last year and has not run since finishing down the field in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot.
