Talent on course for Leger

Ralph Beckett is keen to let Talent have the chance of further Classic glory in the Ladbrokes St Leger at Doncaster on Saturday.

The Kimpton trainer revealed he had to give the Investec Oaks winner a racecourse gallop at Kempton in preparation because his grass gallops at home were too dry.

“She worked at Kempton on Friday because the grass gallop at home is very dry and therefore very quick, so we haven’t been able to get on the grass,” Beckett told At The Races.
