St Leger Betting Odds Suggests another O'Brien Group 1

The St Leger is the final classic of the season and the online bookmakers have marked up the Aiden O'Brien Irish Derby winner Frozen Fire as favourite. Frozen Fire took the Irish Derby in a what was a very confusing race and it looks like he is an improver and the extra two furlongs of the St Leger may just be the making of him and start a series of victories to take over from the prolific Yeats.

In the Irish Derby Frozen Fire charted a course which was away from all the traffic and this proved decisive in the end. He is a German-bred son of Montjeu, Frozen Fire, was produced from off the pace and got the trip really well. It is obvious that his finishing position in the English Derby did not see him at his best and he deserves credit for winning an event of this stature on only the fifth start of his career. He may well prove a late developer and the St Leger is the perfect race to test the form of his Irish Derby success.

The online bookies make Frozen Fire as ante post favourite at around 4/1 with a lot of support coming for him in the last few days.
