CHIMES READY FOR ANOTHER LEGER BID

Chimes At Midnight is set to make a quick reappearance in Saturday`s Jefferson Smurfit Irish St Leger at the Curragh.

The Luke Comer-trained three-year-old was one of eight horses declared for the Group One prize today.

Chimes At Midnight finished third behind Millenary in the Rothmans Royals St Leger at Doncaster last Saturday having been supplemented for the race at a cost of #20,000.

And the son of Danzig was added to the field for this Saturday`s contest at a cost of IR#21,875 on Tuesday.

1999 St Leger winner Mutafaweq will attempt to give Godolphin their third consecutive win in the race following Kayf Tara`s two victories.

Frankie Dettori`s mount heads a strong British-based challenge for the race which includes the Mark Johnston-trained Yavana`s Pace, the mount of Joe Fanning, who finished second last year.

South African jockey Basil Marcus will partner Princess Of Wales`s Stakes winner Little Rock for Sir Michael Stoute, while James Fanshaweruns Arctic Owl (David Harrison).

Apart from Chimes At Midnight the home defence is completed by the John Oxx-trained Katiykha and Aidan O`Brien`s duo Lermontov and Rostropovich.
