2024 St Leger Odds - Illinois leads Jan Brueghel in Doncaster market

Aidan O'Brien has a stranglehold on the early betting for the final Classic of the season. The new favourite is Queen's Vase winner Illinois, who warmed up for Doncaster with a narrow runner-up finish behind stablemate Los Angeles in the Great Voltigeur Stakes.

Los Angeles will now head to the Irish Champions Stakes - run on the same day at Leopardstown - before a tilt at the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. Despite his absence, O'Brien will still play a strong hand, with unbeaten Gordon Stakes winner Jan Brueghel, and runaway Irish St Leger Trial winner Grosvenor Square sitting second and third in the betting. 

Ralph Beckett announced on Monday that Irish Oaks winner, You Got To Me will be supplemented into the final Classic of the season. David Menuisier will step King George fourth Sunway up in trip. Owen Burrows has been training Deira Mile for the St Leger since his fourth-place finish in the Epsom Derby.

Align The Stars could still enter this Classic, despite a lengthy defeat in the Lonsdale Cup at York's Ebor Festival. Jessica Harrington has entered three-time Listed runner-up Kinesiology, with Melrose Handicap fourth Wild Waves a possible runner for Andrew Balding. The rest of the entrants are all trained by Aidan O'Brien, with The Equator, Port Fairy, The Euphrates and Euphoric all featuring in the market.
