Auguste Rodin.

I'll just be watching but hope he can perform at his imperial best.

Glad i only watched but that was pretty disappointing to not beat White Birch imo.

White birch impressive

Very good horse just beaten by a better one today   

That was a class performance by the winner.  The 2nd ran as well as he could.  Winner has improved big time from 3 to 4yrs old

serious Arc contender id say

Is it entered POW Royal Ascot? White Birch

Just checked, yep

sportsbook 33/1 if you can get on, ive been offered 30p

Yes White Birch must have improved both well clear of the rest.

6/1 best now

sportsbook 33/1 if you can get on, ive been offered 30p....Like i keep saying just say you are a big mucker of Tony Calvin's and you can have what you like on.

not to sure on fast ground at r ascot, seems much better on softer , and wasnt stopping there at all over 10 furlongs , arc for me

7/2 Hills, will it run though?

Agree elis

It ran well York fast going but def better with dig

8.4 on here for POW

Got Passenger at decent odds for POW

Let's hope WB doesn't go RA .. 

Can't see him running in the POW unless there's soft in the ground which is unlikely. Champion Stakes at Ascot in October screams out, maybe with the Irish Champion as a prequel. Before that, assume will be so ground dependent.

Big improver. O`Brien`s horses look bang average compared to what we are normally used to.

White Birch a second inside standard

Over 4 seconds outside for the 1000G which probably reflects the steady-ish early pace.

Then not a bad time for the 10f G3, 2.63 secs outside.

So ground probably not too bad, maybe just on the easy as good, which is what they changed it to.

White Birch went past as if A Rodin was a statue

.... so it must be a contender for the best named horse in training

But it's not as if he was outpaced by the good fractions, he was always travelling well, and when AR moved up 3f out, he was sitting easily behind him. If there's a bit of cut in the ground, i see no reason why he'll necessarily be better at 12f than 10f.
