LOGICIAN has been all the rage for the William Hill St Leger since an imperious display in the Sky Bet Great Voltigeur Stakes at York. Campaigned perfectly so far by the masterful John Gosden, there's every possibility of yet more improvement to come over today's longer trip. However, although fully expected to be up to the task in hand this won't be a stroll in the park with the Derby fifth (and Chester Vase winner) Sir Dragonet arguably boasting the strongest form on offer. He's still lightly-raced under the tutelage of Aidan O'Brien (has won this race six times), while the front-running Sir Ron Priestley will surely seek to exploit any stamina flaws among the wider field.
