About the Greyhound St Leger

The Greyhound St Leger is Britain's most prestigious staying race, a Category 1 classic over 730 metres that has been won by most of the great British stayers. Long associated with Perry Barr — where it was won a record six times by trainer Mark Wallis — the race moved to Nottingham for 2025 after Perry Barr's closure, where Wallis extended his record to six with Mongys Wild. From 2026 the St Leger heads to Dunstall Park in Wolverhampton, keeping the classic in the Midlands.

How to punt the Greyhound St Leger

The St Leger tests genuine stamina over 730 metres — British staying form is a niche market where specialists thrive. Mark Wallis has an extraordinary record in this race (six wins), so his staying team deserves market respect each September. Watch the Cesarewitch and TV Trophy form lines leading in; they are the traditional St Leger trials.
