'The St. Leger'
THE St. Leger, the last and longest of the five classic races of the season, second only to the Derby in popularity and importance, is to be decided over the famous Town Moor course, Doncaster, on September. 7. The St. Leger is so named out of compliment to the soldier and sportsman, Colonel St. Leger, who may be said to have founded the race in 1776. Mr. Geoffrey Gilbey , the well-known trainer and racing journalist, will call to mind many of the famous horses, jockeys, owners, and trainers that have figured in past St. Legers.
