Connections have confirmed Tyson Fury is fit and on track for next week’s Pertemps St Leger at Doncaster.
The three-year-old made his debut on July 5, and made a big impression as he beat Postileo to win at Doncaster over one mile and four furlongs.
Connections had been pondering their options for his next outing, but they are now willing to take a risk with Richard Spencer’s colt.
A prep run was planned but part-owner Phil Cunningham says they are willing to try their hand for next week’s big race in South Yorkshire.
He told reporters: “He’s named after a champion, so it’s just down to us now to try to make him one.
“He delivered on our expectations, and hopes first time out, and the plan since then has been the St Leger. Sometimes you’ve got to be brave, haven’t you?
“Our plan was to have one more run, and then go, and obviously we’ve been unable to fit that in. If we put him in on Monday, barring anything physical happening between then and Saturday, he’ll run.”
