    I really liked this horse at Ascot and put a small bet on him today - what a thrill to see him win so well!

    @lorristan 2 місяці тому +18

    Henri Stafford stated the main reason why Goliath came over because his horse needs a very strong pace to be able to show his true running as he pulls very hard in much slower races. With Coolmore running almost two front runners then a fast pace was guaranteed. The winning time was almost 2 seconds faster than standard and all the other races on the card were slower than standard. Great placing by Henri and just what the horse has always wanted.

      @@controlleddemolition9112 His 25-1 odds might have something to do with getting close but failing to win in TWO Group 2 races. If he were #2 or #4 in just ONE G2 race, quite some people would be impressed by a solid performance in his first G2 race ever and the odds could be lower to reflect his unknown potential. But getting close in two G2 might bring up the thought of his upper limit being revealed. Arguably, people could still not be surprised by a two-time G2 placed horse to win a G1. But the way he won today given the class of his opponents was definitely a surprise.

His recent RPRs were in the 110-115 range, and you would expect that it might take 125 -130 to win here against this field. In the US, when we see form jumps like that, it's usually because the horse transferred to a trainer who has better juice.

Danedream did manage to win both the other way around so perhaps the German breeding has another big chance but I'll probably stick with Look de Vega as my Arc fancy depending on how the trials go.

    Auguste Rodin once again proves that you can fake ability and be a 6 times G1 winner just by being lucky and precocious enough to win mostly against his low level generation, and some other low level G1 races. All 3 times he participated in high-level real G1s (KG and Dubai) that involved many strong senior horses with actual pace, he always sank in embarrassing fashion as the No.1 favorite
    It might be better for him to place dead last in this race to make excuse about "not being motivated", but he was chasing hard and still got crushed, it's simply a lack of ability that was being exposed here, just like the previous KG and Dubai

      Can't see how the ride was that bad. O'Brien has declared they know Auguste needs to be ridden up with the pace to be at his best, he ran to pretty much that level today. The combination of a stiff 12f and better quality horses than he has been beating were the reasons for today's defeat. I'm bemused by those who could not see this before the race especially at his silly price.

Guarantee you at a normal days racing in uk with an average race field of say 10/12 I guarantee you 7/8 of them horses are not trying and dont even want to win the race so ordinary joe soap is backing a horse that isnt even gonna try and thats a fact.
