Final Furlong Podcast – St Leger Festival & Irish Champions Weekend Betting Preview

Emmet Kennedy is joined by Andy Newton, George Gorman and Peter Michael to preview Saturday’s ITV Racing from Doncaster and Leopardstown as the world’s oldest Classic, the St Leger, takes centre stage alongside Day One of Irish Champions Weekend.

The team come in hot after a string of winning podcasts and line up a mix of confident NAPs and bold outsiders, including a 28/1 best bet, a 33/1 each-way play, and multiple value picks at 18/1, 12/1, 11/1 and 9/1.

🔑 Key Races & Betting Angles:
• St Leger (G1, Doncaster): Scandinavia, Lambourn, Carmers, Stay True & Furthur analysed in depth.
• Irish Champion Stakes (G1, Leopardstown): All four panellists oppose Delacroix – are Anmaat, Shin Emperor, Zahrann, White Birch or Hotazhell the answer?
• Champagne Stakes (G2, Doncaster): Gewan, a 16/1 podcast winner last time, returns as favourite.
• Ingabelle Stakes (Listed, Leopardstown): Can Diamond Necklace be Ballydoyle’s next star filly?
• Portland Handicap (Doncaster): 12/1 and 11/1 plays with strong trainer stats.
• Park Stakes (G2, Doncaster): Is this make-or-break for Shadow Of Light?
• Champions Juvenile Stakes (G2, Leopardstown): Montreal vs Benvenuto Cellini – Ballydoyle dominance expected.
• Matron Stakes (G1, Leopardstown): Fallen Angel vs January in a Group 1 rematch.
• Solonaway Stakes (G2, Leopardstown): Skukuza heads the betting, but is a 14/1 forgotten horse lurking?
