Today's racing tips: Two longshots to fill your pockets at Doncaster

IT'S the third day of the William Hill St Leger Festival and there's plenty to get stuck into.

I've picked out a pair of runners that have caught my eye at Doncaster and look to be worth following.

3.00 Doncaster - Island Brave

Talented four-year-old colt has been prolific on the all-weather and gained a first turf win at Nottingham last time.

He won with plenty to spare on that occasion and, while he has gone up 4lb, he is still well-weighted on his all-weather form.

Looks to have been underestimated by the bookies for his small but shrewd yard.

5.10 Doncaster - Shared Equity

Likeable seven-year-old ran out a game winner of a big handicap at Epsom in June.

Followed that up with a good third at Newcastle and forgiven his flop at the Galway Festival last time.

Has won off higher marks in the past and return to this galloping track in his favour.
