TV broadcaster John McCririck is delighted that connections of 2000 Guineas and Derby hero Camelot are considering a tilt at the Triple Crown in the St Leger at Doncaster in September.
He believes the historical importance of the feat must make it attractive to the team behind Saturday's impressive winner.
"I've campaigned for it. We have to go back to our forefathers. They knew how to test a horse. Over the mile of the Guineas, then the adaptability over a mile and a half of Epsom, and be able to stay in the Leger, all over a long period of time, the whole season," said the Channel 4 Racing and At The Races pundit
