CAMELOT BEATEN IN LADBROKES ST LEGER AT DONCASTER ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15

LADBROKES ST LEGER FESTIVAL 2012, DONCASTER LADBROKES ST LEGER DAY, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15 Race 4 - Ladbrokes St Leger winning quotes ENCKE CAUSES 25/1 UPSET IN LADBROKES ST LEGER Camelot's attempt to become the 16th winner of the Triple Crown and the first for 42 years ended in disappointment as he went down by three-quarters of a length to Godolphin's Encke. Encke, a 25/1 chance, benefited from a superb Mickael Barzalona ride as he was kicked into the lead two furlongs from home. Try as he might, Camelot was never quite getting to Encke who responded most gamely to the urgings of his Corsican rider. Simon Crisford, Racing Manager for Godolphin, commented: "We are probably not going to be the most popular winner on Town Moor today but from our point of view it was a fantastic result, giving Godolphin its sixth St Leger success. "Mickael Barzalona has given the horse a superb ride and put the race to bed when he kicked on at the two-furlong pole. There was a question about Encke's stamina, but in the end he has stayed it well. "Encke has a fantastic pedigree and is a horse that has always been forward. "We put a line through his last run in the Voltigeur which was a false run race. "From the furlong pole to the finish, I thought Camelot was never getting to us. "We may be party poopers today but on this occasion we are happy to be party poopers. It is fantastic result for the whole team involved with the horse." Race 4 - Ladbrokes St Leger - More winning quotes MAHMOOD AL ZAROONI - IT WAS SHEIKH MOHAMMED'S DECISION TO RUN Godolphin trainer Mahmood Al Zarooni enjoyed his second Classic victory at Doncaster today when Encke caused a 25/1 shock in the Ladbrokes St Leger, beating the red-hot 2/5 favourite Camelot by three-quarters of a length. Al Zarooni's previous Classic success came with Blue Bunting in the 2011 QIPCO 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. The Newmarket handler commented: "We have been trying to win this Classic. Two years ago we ran Rewilding and last year we ran Blue Bunting who were both favourites. Today we have won it with an outsider. Racing can be a funny game. "It was a brilliant ride from Mickael which I think is a sixth St Leger win for Godolphin and His Highness (Sheikh Mohammed). "To be honest, it was His Highness' decision to run here today. I disagreed and thought we should not. He was right. His Highness and I always disagree but His Highness is always right. "I thought Camelot would catch us as I remembered the way he quickened in the Guineas and in the Derby. I saw the other horses were tired and I knew Encke was tough and would keep going. "It is a big thing to win a Classic - it is different to winning just any Group One race. I am thrilled to have won my second Classic in England after Blue Bunting last year." Ladbrokes St Leger winning jockey quotes DELIGHTED BARZALONA Mickael Barzalona, who partnered the 25/1 winner Encke, commented: "I am very happy - the St Leger is a very good race in England and this is my second Classic now. "Encke is a very good horse - he improved after his last run and I am very happy to win today. "When I saw Camelot on my inside, I preferred to go right a little bit and try to run. My horse was very generous today. "I kicked and asked my horse to go and he answered very quickly. I won very nicely. Today Encke was the best. "I knew Camelot was behind on the inside and could see he had difficulty navigating. I asked my horse to go and he went very quickly. Today I won." ENCKE (USA) FACTFILE - THE 2012 LADBROKES ST LEGER WINNER b c Kingmambo (USA) - Shawanda (IRE) (Sinndar (IRE)) Form: 21-1231   Owner: Godolphin Trainer: Mahmood Al Zarooni Jockey: Mickael Barzalona Breeder: Darley Encke Encke is out of dual Group One winner Shawanda and is a full-brother to Group Three Sandown Classic Trial scorer Genius Beast. He made his debut in a mile maiden at Doncaster's Ladbrokes St Leger Festival in September, 2011 and ran with plenty of credit to take second behind subsequent Group Three runner-up Perennial at Newmarket. The son of Kingmambo went one better on his next start in early October when scooting clear of his rivals to win by four and half lengths under Richard Hughes. He missed his intended engagement in the Group One Racing Post Trophy on October 22 due to injury, after being supplemented, and did not run again in 2011. He made a winning return to action in a 10-furlong handicap at Sandown on July 6, before a much-improved effort in the Group Three Gordon Stakes over 12 furlongs, when missing out to Noble Mission by a nose after a ding-dong final furlong battle. Although he reversed the form with that rival in the Group Two Great Voltigeur Stakes at York on August 22, it wasn't enough to see him win the 12-furlong contest as he finished two and a quarter lengths behind Thought Worthy in third. On September 15 at Doncaster he caused a big upset when defeating the 2/5 favourite and Triple Crown-seeking Camelot by three-quarters of a length in the Ladbrokes St Leger, handing Godolphin its sixth success in the world's oldest Classic. Race Record: Starts: 6; Wins: 3; 2nd: 2; 3rd: 1; Win & Place Prize Money: £355,974 Godolphin Godolphin is the racing entity of Sheikh Mohammed and other members of the ruling Maktoum family of Dubai. Its aim is to win races worldwide. Godolphin horses benefit from Dubai's warm winter climate. The experiment began on a small scale in the winter of 1992, with horses enjoying the advantages of the Arabian sunshine before arriving in Britain for the 1993 season. The Godolphin operation was formally established in 1994, with Hilal Ibrahim as trainer, when Balanchine won the Investec Oaks and Irish Derby. The following year, Saeed bin Suroor was appointed as the official trainer. In 1999 and 2000, Godolphin's two-year-olds were housed at the former Evry racecourse in France under the care of David Loder, who in 2001 relocated to Godolphin Stables in Newmarket, although 2003 was his last year as Godolphin's juvenile handler and he has subsequently retired from training. Godolphin's British-based horses are handled by Saeed bin Suroor and Mahmood Al Zarooni, who started training in March, 2010, and enjoyed a first European Classic win with Frozen Power in the 2010 German 2000 Guineas. Andre Fabre trains for Godolphin in France while the US runners are overseen by Kieran McLaughlin, Tom Albertrani and Eoin Harty. Godolphin's famous blue colours have been carried to victory in every British Classic bar the Investec Derby, although Saeed bin Suroor did train Lammtarra to win the premier Classic for Saeed Maktoum Al Maktoum in 1995 and Godolphin claims the success. The unbeaten Lammtarra also won the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot and the Prix de l'Arc De Triomphe at Lonchamp. Godolphin ambitions, other than landing the Investec Derby, include taking the American Triple Crown series, winning the Japan Cup and the Melbourne Cup. Daylami led an historic 1-2-3 in the 1998 Coral-Eclipse, the first time that the same owner and trainer had the first three in a British Group One, and Godolphin's tally of Group/Grade One wins stands at 193. Godolphin was leading British owner in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2004, 2006 and 2007 and captured an American Eclipse Award for top owner in 2007. Godolphin has won 14 British Classics: QIPCO 2,000 Guineas (1996 Mark Of Esteem, 1999 Island Sands), QIPCO 1,000 Guineas (1998 Cape Verdi, 2002 Kazzia, 2011 Blue Bunting), Investec Oaks (1994 Balanchine, 1995 Moonshell, 2002 Kazzia), Ladbrokes St Leger (1995 Classic Cliche, 1998 Nedawi, 1999 Mutafaweq, 2004 Rule Of Law, 2009 Mastery and 2012 Encke). Other major Group/Grade One wins include: Dubai World Cup (1999 Almutawakel, 2000 Dubai Millennium, 2002 Street Cry, 2003 Moon Ballad, 2006 Electrocutionist, 2012 Monterosso), Irish 2,000 Guineas (2000 Bachir, 2005 Dubawi), French 2,000 Guineas (2000 Bachir, 2005 Shamardal), Irish Derby (1994 Balanchine), Irish Oaks (2011 Blue Bunting), Breeders' Cup Turf (1999 Daylami, 2001 Fantastic Light), Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies' (2001 Tempera), King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (1997 & 1998 Swain, 1999 Daylami, 2004 Doyen), Irish Champion Stakes (1994 Cezanne, 1998 Swain, 1999 Daylami, 2001 Fantastic Light, 2002 Grandera), Irish St Leger (1998, 1999 Kayf Tara), Arlington Million (2003 Sulamani - Godolphin's 100th G1 winner), Prix du Jockey Club (2005 Shamardal), Breeders' Cup Juvenile (2009 Vale Of York), Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (1995 Lammtarra, 2001 Sakhee and 2002 Marienbard). Previous Ladbrokes St Leger winners: 1995 CLASSIC CLICHÉ, 1998 NEDAWI, 1999 MUTAFAWEQ, 2004 RULE OF LAW, 2009 MASTERY, 2012 ENCKE Mahmood Al Zarooni Mahmood Al Zarooni was born on October 15, 1976, close to Dubai Creek and developed a passion for horses when he started riding in the desert aged 17. He took part in some endurance races and began working with Arab-horse trainer Rod Simpson in the mid 1990s, progressing to become his assistant. In 1999, he joined Ali Al Raihe's stable at Sharjah, where he began working with thoroughbreds and developed a reputation for his skill with unruly horses. In the 2008/09 season, Sheikh Mohammed recruited him as assistant to Mubarak bin Shafya at Al Asifa Stables in Dubai and in 2009 he became an assistant trainer to Saeed bin Suroor at Godolphin. Al Zarooni was appointed as a trainer for Godolphin in March, 2010, and made an immediate impact with Calming Influence winning the Group Two Godolphin Mile at Meydan on Dubai World Cup night. Al Zarooni is based in Newmarket for the British turf season, at Moulton Paddocks, and saddled his first British winner when Lion Mountain scored at Pontefract on April 28, 2010. A first European Classic win came when Frozen Power took the Group Two German 2,000 Guineas in May, 2010, while Group One success soon followed in the same country when Buzzword annexed that year's German Derby. In October, Biondetti collected the Group One Premio Gran Criterium at San Siro. His first Investec Derby runner, Rewilding, finished third and he ended a highly satisfactory first season in Britain with 43 winners. The 2011 season began well for Al Zarooni as Rewilding made a winning seasonal reappearance in the Group One Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan on March 26, while he gained a first British Classic success with Blue Bunting in the QIPCO 1,000 Guineas at Newmarket. That filly subsequently won the Group One Darley Irish Oaks and the Group One Darley Yorkshire Oaks. Rewilding gave him a first Royal Ascot victory when winning the Group One Prince Of Wales's Stakes in June, although the colt tragically had to be put down after breaking a leg in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot the following month. This season has seen Al Zarooni win the world's richest race, the Dubai World Cup, with Monterosso. Yesterday he won the Group Two Barrett Steel May Hill Stakes for the second year running with Certify and today he won his second British Classic when Encke landed the Ladbrokes St Leger. Ladbrokes St Leger record: 2010-6 Rewilding; 2011-6 Blue Bunting; 2011-8 Genius Beast; 2012-1 ENCKE Mickael Barzalona The 21-year-old Mickael Barzalona is the hottest young riding talent in Europe. Born at Lyon on August 3, 1991, he is the nephew of dual-purpose jockey Armand Barzalona and grandson of Corsican trainer Christian Barzalona. He was more interested in rugby as a child but spent four years at the French jockeys' school in Gouvieux before joining Andre Fabre's stable, on the recommendation of Sylvain Guillot, in 2009. His talents were quickly noticed and he started riding Godolphin's French runners in September, 2009. He had a win on only his second ride in Britain aboard Ocean War in a maiden at Newmarket in April, 2011 and sensationally won the Investec Derby two months later at his first attempt on the Fabre-trained Pour Moi, getting up in the shadows of the post and celebrating by standing up in the saddle. In 2012, Barzalona became a retained rider to Godolphin and landed the world's richest race for his new employers when partnering Monterosso to victory in the Dubai World Cup at Meydan in March. He enjoyed a dream first ride in the Ladbrokes St Leger, partnering Encke to success at Doncaster today. Ladbrokes St Leger record: 2012-1 ENCKE O'BRIEN RUES LACK OF PACE AS HIS HOT FAVOURITE IS BEATEN Aidan O'Brien, the trainer of beaten 2/5 favourite Camelot, commented afterwards: "My first thought is that it was a steadily-run race and I knew straightaway, after going a couple of furlongs, that was the case. I should have run a pacemaker or two but I thought that the pace was going to be strong. "The minute the gates opened, Josesph was where he was and he couldn't do anything about it. That's exactly where I would have wanted him to be - when he is a horse going this distance. Joseph had to relax him and he did, but Camelot just tanked a little bit early because the pace was steady. "Joseph had to take his time down the straight and wait for the gaps to come, which you would do with Camelot anyway. When the gaps came, the winner was in probably a handier position and was gone - when Camelot got out, he just stayed on rather than quickened up. He quickened up in the Guineas and the Derby but that was always liable to happen because we were running him a bit further than his distance. "My regret is that I should have run a pacemaker or two and it would have made it a little bit more straightforward because that means he would have settled a little bit earlier, a little bit better and he might have quickened a bit more than he did. "That's the way it is and well done to the winner. That's the reality of it, really. "I am not sure where he will go next. I thought that, if he was to stay in training next year, there was a chance that he wouldn't run anymore but I don't know. It will be the boys' decision." MORE O'BRIEN QUOTES Aidan O'Brien continued: "Joe said Camelot was a bit fresh with him - he tanked (along) a little bit. You have to take your time on him over a mile and six furlongs which Joseph did. "When Camelot got out (in the straight) he just stayed on rather than quickened. In the Guineas and Derby, he quickened. "What Camelot (normally) does is quicken - he was just staying on today - we going past our distance and were stretching the elastic band. "Today he was like the Guineas run. But he still has run a great race. I would have preferred a faster pace where he would have settled better. Camelot was tanking with Joseph the whole way. "No-one thinks more about this horse than Joseph. I can see the way the race unfolded where he went and why he was there. He had to stay creeping where he was - he could not go pulling Camelot to the outside turning in. "He had to keep waiting for the gaps as they came. That is what he did. If he (Joseph) had come four wide in the straigh,t I would have been going mad. "How many times do I do it and make a hash of it (running pacemakers) and then I made a hash of it by not having any. "I regret that - I should have run a pacemaker or two." HORSES THAT FAILED TO WIN THE TRIPLE CROWN The following 10 horses won the 2,000 Guineas and the Derby, but were beaten in the St Leger: YEAR HORSE   POSITION IN ST LEGER 1843   Cotherstone   2nd behind Nutwith 1869   Pretender   unplaced behind Pero Gomez 1882   Shotover   3rd behind Dutch Oven 1888   Ayrshire     unplaced behind Seabreeze 1894   Ladas     2nd behind Throsttle 1904   St Amant   6th (last) behind Pretty Polly 1909   Minoru     4th behind Bayardo 1925   Manna     10th behind Solario 1931   Cameronian   10th (last) behind Sandwich 2012 CAMELOT   2nd behind Encke Fourth race: The Ladbrokes St Leger JOCKEYS AFTER THE LADBROKES ST LEGER Joseph O'Brien, on board Camelot, who finished second on Camelot, was too upset to comment after the race. Frankie Dettori, partner of third, Michelangelo, said: "It was straightforward race and I stayed on well for third." Ted Durcan, rider of fifth Main Sequence, said: "I missed the break which wasn't any help. So I ended up last which wasn't the plan but he's run a solid race." William Buick, jockey of sixth Thought Worthy, said: "The ground was a bit too quick - it has dried too much for me but he ran a good race for a long way. The race went perfectly for him but the ground was just too quick. He ran an honest race." Tom Queally, rider of eighth Thomas Chipppendale, said: "I thought they might have gone a bit quicker but no excuses." Robert Havlin, partner of ninth Dartford , said: "My horse led well and about half-way I had a little look behind and Joseph (O'Brien on Camelot) was cantering. Obviously, I was too far behind to see the finish but I don't think there were any hard luck stories." MIKE DILLON OF LADBROKES Mike Dillon of the sponsors Ladbrokes commented: "Someone else will have to try and win the Triple Crown now. "It was a bold move to attempt the Triple Crown with Camelot and it was a shame it did not come off. "It was a race - everyone turned up and they all fancied having a go. The winner got a really enterprising ride and won on merit. "Let's hope someone wants to try again next year." MURTAGH DELIGHTED Johnny Murtagh, on the fourth Ursa Major, said: "He stayed on well at the end. I am delighted with him. They went a slow early pavcce and I got tapped for toe at the top of the hill but I am still delighted."      ENCKE THE PARTY POOPER AS LADBROKES REFUND CAMELOT STAKES Ladbrokes have refunded St Leger bets struck on Camelot as a free bet of up to £20 for all their customers. The 2/5 favourite could only finish runner-up to Godolphin's Encke who was returned the 25/1 winner at Doncaster to ruin dreams of a first Triple Crown in 42 years. And Ladbrokes had pledged on the morning of the race to refund losing bets on Camelot as a free bet for those customers betting up to £20. David Williams of Ladbrokes said: "Our customers who backed Camelot have been thrown a lifeline. The result wasn't quite what we'd hoped for but our punters aren't out of pocket, at least. "Encke all but slipped off the radar but was a worthy winner. We hope we don't have to wait another 42 years before we can get excited about the Triple Crown." Race 1 - Harriet Powell Handicap - Winning Quotes MILE NO PROBLEM FOR QUICK Godolphin was three-handed going into the mile-long Harriet Powell Handicap, the opening race on Ladbrokes St Leger Day, and it was Quick Wit who emerged best of the trio. The five-year-old was partnered by William Buick and showed an eye-catching turn of foot in the final furlong to overhaul Anderiego and score by three-quarters of a length at 6/1. His stablemate Invisible Man stayed on to take third. Winning trainer Saeed bin Suroor said: "He was dropping down to a mile today but the strong pace suited him. "He is a horse that can stay a mile and a quarter and it's great to see him come back with a win. class=Section2> "His last piece of work was very good and we knew he was in good form coming into the race. He is in the Cambridgeshire but we will keep all our options open with him. He could also head out to Dubai next year as well. "We run Tha'ir in the Champagne Stakes. He is a small horse but has a big heart and always tries his best. "Soul goes in the Park Stakes. He is in good form but I think the ground might be a bit quick for hm today." William Buick added: "There was a strong pace in the race and you've got to stay a mile really well to win here. It's good, fast ground out there today." GOING AFTER THE FIRST William Buick, partner of the winner Quick Wit, said: "Good fast ground." Daniel Tudhope, partner of second Anderiego, said: "Good to firm and it is kicking up a bit." Frankie Dettori, on board third Invisible Man, said: "Perfect good ground." Mickael Barzalona, rider of Red Gulch, said: "Good." Adrian Nicholls, jockey of St Moritz, said: "Fast." Laura Pike, on board Mabait, said: "It is on the quick side of good." Andrea Atzeni, jockey of Mia's Boy said: "Quick." Richard Hughes, rider of Bancnuanaheireann, said: "It is quicker than good." Martin Lane, partner of Vainglory, said: "Good." James Doyle, jockey of Norse Blues, said: "Good." Paul Hanagan, on board Jake's Destiny, said: "It felt fairly quick to me and has dried again since yesterday" Race 2 - One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes - Winning Quotes TORONADO MAKES IT THREE FROM THREE IN CHAMPAGNE Toronado maintained his unbeaten record with a game front-running performance in the Group Two One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes. Trained by Richard Hannon and ridden by Richard Hughes, the 11/4 chance showed a very willing attitude as he held off the challenge of 5/6 favourite Dundonnell to score by half a length in the seven-furlong contest. Richard Hannon Junior, assistant trainer to his father, commented: "We were worried it might not be far enough for him today so I told Richard to go out and make it a test. "The horse has done it the hard way and they all had their chance to go past him. I would say he is probably about as good a colt as we have got this year. "All being well, he could come back here for the Racing Post Trophy (Group One, 1m, October 27). He was bought in France so there would be a premium if we went for the Prix Jean Luc Lagardere, so that is another option to consider. "He will be aimed at the Guineas next year and maybe the Derby. Who knows, we may have a Triple Crown horse! "He is a very sound horse and the ground seems no problem for him. Physically, he is as nice a horse as you've seen." Richard Hughes added: "I always thought that he was a good horse. I can only go on feel but today he proved that he was a good horse. "I was in a Catch 22 - this horse needs a mile but I wasn't going to go fast enough to set it up for the rest. Although I wasn't going that fast, it wouldn't have really suited me either. "He has a lovely way of galloping with a beautiful action - it's a pleasure to be on him." Second race: The One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes Place quotes NO EXCUSES FROM CHARLTON After a middling pace early on, a final furlong sprint saw the two market leaders fight it out for the honours, with the 5/6 favourite Dundonnell coming off a half-length second best to the 11/4 second favourite, Toronado, in the Group Two One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes. Afterwards Dundonnell's trainer, Roger Charlton, commented: "I thought he ran very well, we were just beaten by a better horse I guess. There are no excuses, James (Doyle, jockey) had a big problem pulling him up - again. He went miles down the back straight so a mile will suit and maybe a slightly better pace would help. I thought he had every chance." Dundonnell holds entries in the Juddmonte Royal Lodge and the Dubai Dewhurst, both held at Newmarket, but Charlton was non committal about the colt's next appearance. "There is no decisions as to where he is going to run at this stage - there is no need to rush a decision." said Charlton. Frankie Dettori, who rode the third home, Tha'ir, said: "It was a good race but I was third best." Race 3 - Ladbrokes Portland Handicap - Winning Quotes DOC HAY TAKES PORTLAND IN COURSE-RECORD TIME Doc Hay got up in the shadows of the post to take the Ladbrokes Portland Handicap by a neck from Face The Problem in 1m 6.01s, a new course record for the five furlongs and 140 yards distance at Doncaster. The 20/1 chance was partnered by Daniel Tudhope and the five-year-old could bid for a quick double in next Saturday's Ayr Gold Cup. Winning trainer David O'Meara said: "Doc Hay has been a good horse over the past 12-18 months. "We ran him at Haydock last weekend when the ground was plenty quick enough for him, much quicker than it was today. "The Haydock run was a prep for today which was the plan. It's brilliant that it has all worked out. "The horse was already on an upward curve when he joined us from Keith Dalgleish and has maintained his progression. We just try and keep the horses as fit and happy as we can. "He may now go for the Ayr Gold Cup. He ran off 97 today and will get a penalty so he should get in." Daniel Tudhope added: "I thought that I had won. He is such a hard horse to win with but he has run some big races this year and has been unlucky. "I am so delighted for the owner - he is such a nice man and very patient. It's great to get his head in front. "He just got away with the ground today. It's good to firm ground but there is no jar in it. We thought today's distance would suit him down to a T - it was perfect." Third race: The Ladbrokes Portland Handicap Place quotes FACE UP FOR THE CUP A course record was what it took to beat Jamie Osborne's charge, Face The Problem, into second place by a neck in the extended five furlong Ladbrokes Portland Handicap, though the trainer was still pleased with the result. "He's run a very sound race." said Osborne "The plan is to go to Ayr with him next Saturday (for the Ayr Gold Cup) and we were rather hoping for the penalty of winning a Portland on the way. That would have guaranteed us getting in. We will have to wait till Monday now to see if I think there is still a fair chance we will get in." "What is pleasing about the run is that clearly the six furlongs (of the Ayr Gold Cup) isn't going to be beyond him - it was always a question mark in my mind." Fifth race: The OLBG Park Stakes Win quotes LIBRANNO HARD TO BEAT Trainer Richard Hannon went into the Group Two OLBG Park stakes double-handed but it was the less fancied of his two runners, 16/1 shot Libranno, that came up with the spoils, winning by half-a-length. Richard Hannon Jnr, representing his father, said afterwards: " He did it well, he's a very good horse when he is on song. His form goes up and down but when he is on form he is a very hard horse to beat. "I am a bit disappointed with Strong Suit (sent of as the 6/4 favourite and finished fourth), he was on and off the bridle and didn't get much luck in running I thought this was a race he could win but take nothing away from the winner, he did it very well." Asked as to future plans for the winner and Strong Suit, Hannon said: I don't know about either, we will sleep on it and speak to the owners. "Strong Suit is going to be stallion at some point so I will have to talk to David (Redvers, racing manager for Quater Racing) who is in America at the moment about him. We will talk to Libranno's owners as to future plans later."      Sixth race: The AgriArgo UK Tractor Challenge Nursery Win quotes HANNON HAS A RISING STAR Rising Legend took the sixth race by half-a-length on Ladbrokes St Leger day for Richard Hannon, giving the stable a 521.75/1 treble, with Toranado and Libranno winning earlier. Richard Hannon Jnr, assistant to his father, said of the Rock Of Gibraltar colt: "He did it very nicely, they went very quick and I think that suited him. "We had said in the paddock before the race for Richard (Hughes) to ride him handy but that all got changed around somehow. He travelled very well and came though stongly and got the trip well which is very important in these two-year-old races." Hannon was uncertain as to Rising Legend's, who broke his maiden tag at Brighton in August, future plans. "We may look at the Zetland or maybe another nursery," said Hannon, "He's a pretty talented horse but has taken his time, his first run was very good but then he tapered off a bit and went a bit weak. Then we had to go to Brighton to win a race with him but now we are back here on the big day. We are very pleased." Seventh race: The Mollart Cox Handicap Win quotes VIKING STORMS TO VICTORY Viking Storm completed a hat trick of wins for his connections when getting the nod in a photo-finish in the closing race, the Mollart Cox Handicap, of the 2012 Ladbrokes St Leger Festival. Harry Dunlop, who trains the four-year-old gelding, said: "He is a horse who is very much on the up and today he had a difficult position. I thought for a minute he might not get out. Paul (Hanagan, jockey) said they went very hard early on and that he almost couldn't lay up with them. Then he got into a bad pocket but got out of it with his bit of class. "He loves the fast ground which why he hasn't run as much as he could have, having said that he has won four for us. Not many do! "As to his future plans it is very much a case of see what the handicapper does to him. He adores the dirt and he is very effective on it. I have always talked about taking him to Dubai if he was ever good enough. "He's given a everybody a lot of fun and he's capped of a really good season for us, the best season we have ever had." CAMELOT THE FOCUS WITH TRIPLE CROWN BID AT DONCASTER BUT THERE ARE DOUBTERS Camelot is pictured bursting through flames, alongside an excalibur engraved with his name in a dramatic Racing Post front page montage. The headline is "Camelot on the brink of history", with the following text: "It has been 42 years since Nijinsky won the Triple Crown. We thought it wouldn't happen again, but now Aidan O'Brien's 2,000 Guineas and Derby winner can join the giants in today's Ladbrokes St Leger". The national newspapers cannot quite rival the Post's level of St Leger coverage but most make a decent attempt. The Daily Telegraph leads off its sport supplement with a large front page picture of Camelot, with the headline "Crowning Glory - Camelot aims for place among Racing Legends". The Daily Telegraph tags exclusive Paul Hayward's interview, featured on the next page, with trainer Aidan O'Brien who is quoted: "He's an incredible talent, really. One of those very special horses, one that only comes once in a lifetime." On the opposite page, J A McGrath puts his slant on Camelot's Triple Crown attempt: "In terms of achievement in the athletic arena, the closest human equivalent would be asking Usain Bolt to line up in the 800 metres, having hacked up in the 100m and 200m." The Times devotes the back page of its sport's section to the Triple Crown bid. Alan Lee has an interview with O'Brien and his 19-year-old son Joseph who rides Camelot at Doncaster today. Lee wrote: "It will not be a betting opportunity that brings a sell-out crowd of more than 30,000 to this gritty part of South Yorkshire. It will be the prospect of witnessing something few of us expected to see again." Rob Wright of The Times tips Thought Worthy to upset Camelot, while Chris Cook, writing in The Guardian says Guarantee makes the most appeal. The Guardian's racing coverage features in the middle page spread of the paper's sports section, with main correspondent Greg Wood's article headlined "How the horse with a mystical name can fulfil the quest of a lifetime". The Independent's Chris McGrath reminds that, while there have been 15 previous Triple Crown winners, no trainer has ever before won all five British Classics in the same year. O'Brien has captured two with Camelot, the 2,000 Guineas and the Derby, while he was also successful with Homecoming Queen in the 1,000 Guineas and Was in the Oaks. The Daily Star's Starform racing insert, which terms itself Britain's Number One Racing Pullout, puts its Ladbrokes St Leger verdict on the front - Camelot to win from Ursa Major and Main Sequence third. Inside there is a Lester Piggott exclusive from Patrick Weaver, while Times Up's success in yesterday's Stobart Doncaster Cup for trainer John Dunlop, who announced his retirement the day before, is highlighted by Tony Lewis. Mark Winstanley tips Thomas Chippendale in the Ladbrokes St Leger. Meanwhile, in The Sun's Favourite racing section there is another Lester Piggott exclusive, correspondent Claude Duval's interview with the legendary former jockey who partnered Nijinsky to victory in the 1970 St Leger. Piggott is quoted: "I won the 1970 St Leger in a canter. Like Camelot, Nijinsky had beaten most of his rivals before. It will be the same story again (today)." Duval also has interviews with Aidan and Joseph O'Brien inside. The Daily Mail's racing correspondent Marcus Townend ended his lead item by writing: "Some argue the Triple Crown is an outdated irrelevance but if Camelot can make history, he will be far better remembered in 50 years than next month's Arc hero, unless that is also him." The Daily Express's racing coverage is limited to two pages, with just three paragraphs of editorial. Two paragraphs are devoted to Dunlop's Stobart Doncaster Cup victory, with Camelot's Triple Crown attempt mentioned at the end. The Daily Mirror Racing pullout is all for Camelot and the headline says "The History Boys". The exploits of Camelot and Nijinsky are compared inside. Jamie Reid in the FT Weekend's colour magazine says the St Leger is back in the fashionable fray. "Famous old races can drift in and out of fashion just like flared trousers and platform-heeled shoes. Take the St Leger, for example. This afternoon the 236th running of the oldest classic in the calendar will take place at Doncaster, and there's high excitement that it will culminate in a moment of racing history." The Yorkshire Post has done racing proud each day of the Ladbrokes St Leger Festival, thanks to comprehensive coverage, mostly by Tom Richmond. Today's edition of the broadsheet daily features interviews with Aidan and Joseph O'Brien conducted by Richmond in Ireland on Monday. Finally, the alternative racing Saturday paper, Racing Plus, devotes its first five pages to asking whether Camelot can follow in the footsteps of Nijinsky. DONCASTER ON LADBROKES ST LEGER DAY 2012 IS A SELL-OUT The remaining tickets for the Grandstand and the Frenchgate Family Enclosure available at Doncaster Racecourse today, totalling nearly 3,500, have all been snapped up and Ladbrokes St Leger Day is a sell-out. This means there are approximately 32,000 racegoers at Doncaster today to witness an historic Ladbrokes St Leger in which the unbeaten Camelot goes for the Triple Crown after victories in the QIPCO 2,000 Guineas and the Investec Derby.          Kate Hills, on behalf of Doncaster Racecourse, commented: "We were always confident that today would be a sell-out. "It is great that so many people are here for the final day of the Ladbrokes St Leger Festival to witness what should be a tremendous 236th running of the world's old Classic."   class=Section3> LADBROKES LATEST BETTING ON THE LADBROKES ST LEGER At 3.25pm Camelot 2/5 Dartford 100/1 Encke 33/1 Guarantee 14/1 Main Sequence 10/1 Michelangelo 10/1 Thomas Chippendale 16/1 Thought Worthy 10/1 Ursa Major 14/1 GOING The going for the fourth and final day of the 2012 Ladbrokes St Leger Festival, Ladbrokes St Leger Day, is now: GOOD, GOOD TO FIRM IN PLACES (Previously Good at the end of Friday's racing) Jon Pullin, Clerk of the Course at Doncaster, reported this morning: "We had a dry night and the going is now good, good to firm in places. "Today is forecast to stay dry with temperatures set to reach 19 degrees Celsius and the strong breeze we experienced yesterday has dropped. "The ground may quicken a bit throughout the day although I don't expect the going description to change at this stage. "We are set fair for what will hopefully be a historic Ladbrokes St Leger Day at Doncaster." class=Section4> A FABULOUS WEEK SO FAR ON TOWN MOOR Everyone is hoping that the 2012 Ladbrokes St Leger Festival concludes in perfect fashion today with Camelot becoming the 16th winner of the Triple Crown after the first three days of the meeting provided some magic moments. The action kicked off on Wednesday with Welcome To Yorkshire Day, the centrepiece of which was the Clipper Logistics Leger Legends Classified Stakes. The mile contest saw riding stars of the past take to the saddle once again and it was two St Leger-winning jockeys who fought out the dramatic finish with 53-year-old Mick Kinane getting the better of 65-year-old George Duffield by a nose. Most importantly, the contest has already raised over £100,000 for the two nominated charities, the Injured Jockeys Fund Jack Berry House in Malton and the Northern Racing College, Doncaster. Donations can still be made online at www.justgiving.com/northernracingcollege Wednesday also saw a welcome return to the winner's enclosure for the 2010 Nunthorpe Stakes victor Sole Power in the Listed Scarbrough Stakes. After that confidence-boosting success, the five-year-old is set for another international campaign, taking in France, Hong Kong and Dubai. Proud Chieftan provided a good story following his victory in the Kat Communications Knowledge About Telecoms Conditions Stakes as his trainer, Cliff Lines, was at Doncaster 50 years ago to lead up the 1962 St Leger hero Hethersett. It was DFS Ladies Day on Thursday and the Sir Henry Cecil-trained Wild Coco was an impressive winner of the 'fillies' St Leger, the DFS Park Hill Stakes. Sunday Times caused a 22/1 upset in the day's other Group race, the Group Three Japan Racing Association Sceptre Stakes, while the richest race of the day, the Weatherbys Insurance £300,000 2-Y-O Stakes, went to the only filly in the race, 11/4 favourite The Gold Cheongsam. The latter's jockey, Liverpool-born Franny Norton, dedicated his victory to the 96 people who died in the Hillsborough disaster. Yesterday was Stobart Doncaster Cup Day and proceedings began perfectly for the CEO of the headline sponsor, Andrew Tinkler, when his Sir Prancealot took the opening Group Two Polypipe Flying Childers Stakes. Sir Graham Wade has been one of the season's progressive handicappers and he rewarded favourite backers when taking the ultra-competitive Ladbrokes Mallard Handicap. John Dunlop, one of the most successful trainers in Britain during his 47-year career, announced on Thursday that he is to retire at the end of the season and the ironically-named Times Up gave him perhaps his last big-race winner in the Group Two Stobart Doncaster Cup on Friday. The Arundel-based handler has always been a big supporter of Doncaster and saddled three winners of the Ladbrokes St Leger - Moon Madness (1986), Silver Patriarch (1997) and Millenary (2000). Dunlop was presented with a magnum of champagne by the Doncaster executive in recognition of his retirement. The Group Two Barrett Steel May Hill Stakes went to Godolphin for the third successive year with the unbeaten Certify battling to a brave head victory over Purr Along. She looks a leading fancy for Classic honours in 2013. Frankel, the world's best racehorse, won the contest now run as the Rossington Hall Conditions Race two years ago and in 2012 it was another Khalid Abdullah-trained horse, Ashdan, that took the spoils. Trained by John Gosden, the unbeaten Dansili colt could possibly return to Town Moor for the Racing Post Trophy on October 27. LADBROKES ST LEGER DAY MARKET MOVERS Fourth race: The Ladbrokes St Leger Ladbrokes are offering a innovative bet on the Ladbrokes St Leger, available at any Ladbrokes outlet. For a £20 stake on Camelot, at 2/5, Ladbrokes will pay out £8 on the win and refund your stake should Camelot lose. This represent a 40% return on your initial stake.

The first of the Group races is the Group Two One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes due off at 2.25pm. First run in 1823, it is a two-year-old race for colts and geldings with classic aspirations. Previous winners include Grundy ('74), Wollow ('75), Rodrigo De Trianno ('91) and Poet's Voice ('09). This year's renewal sees a field of five contest the seven furlongs of Town Moor with the Richard Hannon-trained Toronado, who is quoted at 25/1 for next year's Inverstec Derby, expected to be well supported. Ladbrokes quote 11/4 about the High Chaparral colt. Another horse of significant interest is the Roger Charlton-trained Dundonnell, who took the Group Three Acomb Stakes at York last time out, and is evens favourite with Ladbrokes The other Group Two on offer is the OLBG Park Stakes which follows the Ladbrokes St Leger on the card at 4.15pm. It is is also run over seven furlongs and open to three-year-olds and upwards of either sex. The OLBG Park Stakes was first run in 1978 with Tap On Wood ('79), Known Fact ('80), and dual winner Iffraaj ('05, '06) being among those to grace the winner's enclosure. This year there are eight declared with Pastoral Player an interesting prospect. He won the Group Three Timeform Jury Stakes at Haydock back in June for Hughie Morrison, who also trained the five-year-old's sire, Pastoral Pursuits, to win the race in 2004. He is 8/1 with Ladbrokes. Another leading fancy is the multiple Group winner Strong Suit (2/1 with Ladbrokes), who is looking to bounce back after a disappointing seventh in the Haydock Sprint Cup last weekend, and there is also Foxtrot Romeo, who was second in this year's Irish 2,000 Guineas on the Curragh and is hoping to improve on his fifth-place in the Group Two Lennox Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on his last start. He is 8/1 with Ladbrokes. class=Section5> FIRST RACE RESULT 1.50pm HARRIET POWELL HANDICAP Class 2, £20,000 guaranteed. For 3yo+ Rated 96-110 (also open to such horses rated 95 and below), 1m.
