Touleen and Forty Years On to compete in the Sceptre Fillies' Stakes at Doncaster
On the final day of the St Leger festival at Doncaster, fillies Touleen and Forty Years On will compete in the Group Three Japan Racing Association Sceptre Fillies' Stakes. As Sky Sports News reports, the start is scheduled for 15:05.
Main contenders
Touleen, trained by Owen Burrows, has the highest rating among the runners, with David Probert set to be her new jockey. According to the outlet, the filly has shown high class but was beaten in her last two starts, including in a race at this level.
The trainer will fit Touleen with cheekpieces. The filly will aim to secure her first victory at stakes level. Earlier this season, she was beaten by Precise in the Coronation Stakes; Sky Sports News notes that she may have been unlucky in that race.
George Scott's Forty Years On comes into the race after two consecutive victories. The outlet highlights her progress and the impression made by her previous performance over the course and distance at Doncaster, describing her as a dangerous rival in a stronger field.
