Horse Racing - St Leger

The oldest of Britain's five Classics, inaugurated in 1776, this is a flat race run each September over one mile, six furlongs and 115 yards (2,921 metres) at Doncaster racecourse (Town Moor), South Yorkshire, England.
It is age restricted to three-year-old horses. If an animal wins the 1,000 or 2,000 Guineas, the Derby or the Oaks and then the St Leger it is said to have clinched the Triple Crown. The race was named after Anthony St Leger, who instigated the race, in 1778 having been known as "A Sweepstake of 25 Guineas" for its first two runnings over the original distance of two miles. It adopted its current length in 1813.
