Some of the leading sprinters will head to Haydock Park on Saturday afternoon for the Group 1 Sprint Cup, which is a fascinating 6f contest taking place at 3:35pm. We take a look at the potential Sprint Cup Runners for the 2024 renewal, which should be a thrilling renewal.
A stunning winner of the Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock earlier in the season, Inisherin then stormed to victory in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, but disappointed when down the field in the July Cup at Newmarket, when well fancied. Now, looking to bounce back to winning ways having had a break the Kevin Ryan-trained raider is one of the leading fancies for this contest.
Karl Burke’s Elite Status beat Lake Forest by half-a-length in the Hackwood Stakes at Newbury last time out and that pair are set to take their chance in the Sprint Cup this weekend and both are prominent figures in a wide open betting heat. Second to Mill Stream in the July Cup at Newmarket, Swingalong is looking to go one better here and adds more depth to the challenge of the aforementioned Burke.
St Leger Odds 2024 – You Got To Me in to Disrupt O’Brien Dominance
Ralph Beckett has thrown a spanner in the works of what appeared a Ballydoyle dominated St Leger by supplementing Irish Oaks heroine You Got To Me into a five-day field of ten on Monday.

Mon 09 Sep 2024A Group 3 earlier in the season, Jasour will be another three-year-old looking to land this prize, but Clive Cox’s colt has failed to kick on from that Group 3 win and will need to improve to get his head in front. Legendary speedster Kinross has failed to reach his best this season, but is still a proven class act at this level and should he take his chance over six furlongs then has to be given a second look.
Bucanero Fuerte, Montassib and Shouldvebeenaring all add huge depth to the field and if that triumvirate take their chance then should all line up with a notable chance in what is set to be a devilishly difficult assignment for punters to work out.
