    For a moment I thought she wasn’t going to get there when he had to wait to get out at the top of the straight but she has a real potent turn of foot and picked up brilliantly and was really motoring to the extent that about 50 yards passed the line she was nearly 4L clear.

    Gosden amusingly said that he had been running her over the wrong trip for the last few years and it is good to know she will be returning next season – you would have to say races like the POW/Eclipse/Juddmonte/Irish Champion/Champion etc should all now been on the agenda (ground permitting of course) and a repeat in this race next year.

    Inspiral won’t have the help of Frankie in Britain next year…

    …Or will she?

    I am guessing he will travel over to ride her as he has done so in all but one of her races – Royal Ascot is a no brainer and I assuming that if there are no big race clashes stateside then he would be a fool not to come.

    Still a little bemused by them running king of steel today

    He’s a horse for next year

    Running a horse this big on ground this quick a couple of weeks after a hard race on soft ground just seems an unnecessary risk

    Could bottom him

    I make a compelling case for
    Casa Creed
    Each way
    Has raced in this three times without success and looks highly laid out here.
    The yard have identical form for running the same horse multiple times without success and then in 2016 bullseye 🎯 following a good draw. Casanova creed is blest with a stellar berth in stall 3 and many of the more favoured yards would kill for this berth. No suprise with badly drawn boys try too hard and set this up because of the draw the physics would then do the rest….

    Kelina a touch overpriced for the mile albeit has a wide berth in stall 11. Thrives on the ground though, won a group 1 last time against elders and colts and does stay a mile despite not seeing out her effort two starts ago.

    I honestly thought that Mawj had held on there.

    Hope Mostahdaf stays.
    He’ll certainly love the ground.
    Just wonder if he’ll like being surrounded if that happens.
    I’d have him prominent if getting a good break.

    This trip I can see why Auguste is fav, but he is a bit short.
    On form King Of Steel is fairly priced, but has a lot on to get over Ascot. .

    Moore on a different level but it did open up like the red sea on the inside for him as the others were fighting each other going wide

    Glad the European horses have done well this year.
    Just heard it’s Del Mar next year.

    I have a feeling that Auguste Rodin will make an excellent sire

    He’s a beautiful mover
    has tactical speed
    he stays
    He’s well balanced
    He has a will to win
    He’s now proven he has the temperament to travel

    They say in the post race interview there’s a strong chance he stays in training

    I’d say that’s a bare faced lie and he will be retired
