*The 1989 race was run at Ayr Racecourse because of subsidence at Doncaster Racecourse.

In 1970, the legendary Nijinsky ridden by the equally legendary Lester Piggott won the English Triple Crown, joining only a total of 15 horses ever to have emerged as St Leger Stakes winners after having also won the 2000 Guineas and the Epsom Derby. Before Nijinsky, the last Triple Crown winner was Bahram, in 1935.
