St Leger: Chippendale team delay call

Doncaster is home of the St Leger
Connections of Thomas Chippendale will wait for about a week before deciding on the three-year-old's next race...
The Sir Henry Cecil-trained colt holds entries in the St Leger and the Prix Niel at Longchamp in the middle of next month.
Winner of the Group 2 King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot, Thomas Chippendale was last seen finishing fifth to Thought Worthy in the Great Voltigeur Stake at York last week when he was giving 3lb to all his rivals.
"He's fine. We haven't made a decision on what we are going to do with him yet," said Barry Simpson, racing manager to owner Sir Robert Ogden.
"He's entered in France in the Prix Niel, but we won't make a decision for a week or so. He's also been left in the Leger. He'll probably have one or two more races this season, then we'll put him away for next year. The race at York didn't suit us so we really didn't learn an awful lot from it."
Thomas Chippendale is currently available to back at 42.041/1 in the St Leger ante-post market.
