'I can't let this St Leger runner go unbacked at 28-1' - Gina Bryce joins our expert panel answering the big weekend questions
Jockey Harry Davies, Maddy Playle, Jonny Pearson and Pat Cooney also give their views

Are you with or against Scandinavia in the St Leger (3.40 Doncaster)?
Gina Bryce, broadcaster I would favour Lambourn over Scandinavia among the Ballydoyle trio as I think we'll see an entirely different horse to the one who showed up at York and he's always looked an ideal Leger candidate. I can't let Rahiebb go unbacked at 28-1 either on the strength of his unlucky third in the Queen's Vase for a trainer who knows how to win this race.
Pat Cooney, bet365 I'm just about with Scandinavia as his last two runs have been a big improvement on his previous form. It will be fascinating to see how the tactics play out and Scandinavia, who has won over further, may have to make his own running.
Harry Davies, jockey Scandinavia is guaranteed to get the trip, which is not the case with many in the field, and the rain that has fallen there will ensure that it will be a proper test.
