Pegasus World Cup live stream: How to watch free online, race time, horses and odds
John & Thady Gosden-trained Arrest (3/1) and Aidan O'Brien-trained Continuous (7/2) are the favorites to take the £396,000 top prize at the 2023 St Leger Stakes, the final leg of the British Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing, and the fifth and final Classic of the year. Contested over 1m 6f (2,921m), it's a race for stayers, with the pacemakers often fading away towards the finish line.
Read on and we'll show you how to watch the Pegasus World Cup from anywhere with a VPN, and potentially for FREE.
Continuous left Gregory (4/1) – another John & Thady Gosden horse – eating his dust at the Great Voltigeur Stakes in York last month, a victory that denied the St Leger Stakes favorite a fourth win from four starts.
This fledgling rivalry is set up beautifully at Doncaster Racecourse, with Gregory originally to be ridden by seven-time St Leger Stakes-winning jockey Frankie Dettori on the occasion of his final ever Classic – just as Continuous trainer O'Brien seeks his seventh St Leger Stakes triumph. Dettori switched to Arrest at the last minute, though, after a change in ground conditions the last of those best.
Haggas-trained Desert Hero (5/1) is another contender to keep an eye out for.
