Vinnie Heads For Leopardstown

Vinnie Roe, winner of the Irish St Leger a record four times, is on course to return to action at Leopardstown on Sunday.

Dermot Weld?s seven-year-old is due to run in the Listed Ballyroan Stakes at the weekend, a race he has won twice in the past, as he continues his build-up towards another bid for the Curragh Classic.

On his most recent outing Vinnie Roe finished third, beaten five and a quarter lengths behind Westerner in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot at York.

'Vinnie Roe is well and all set for Sunday. He had a break after running third in the Ascot Gold Cup in June and is in good form,' Weld told the Racing Post.

* Vinnie Roe has been rated joint 4th at 119 in the World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings released yesterday. >Click here for Table
