Instead of showing the Winners Circle ceremony FanDrool is showing some blonde talking about football as well as betting apps that cut you off in time and money limits so you can’t lose all your money.

Eventually the tail end of the ceremony with no sound came back on. Still no updates yet on August.

The Racing Post now says he was eased on the turn for home and allowed to come home on his own time
Sounds like he is not injured but for whatever reason he had a bad race.

Maybe a breathing issue? Princess Anne looks like the Queen a bit in nice trim yellow coat.

The performance of AUGUSTE RODIN (IRE), which started favourite and finished unplaced, was
considered. Aidan O’Brien could offer no explanation for the colt’s performance. The Veterinary Officer
examined AUGUSTE RODIN (IRE) post-race and had nothing to report.

Aidan O’Brien was at a loss to explain the effort of Auguste Rodin, saying: “There are no excuses. Whatever happened, the power ran out and it ran out early. That is the unusual thing. The race wasn’t even started.

“He was calm in the paddock, we were very happy with him. There is obviously a reason and we’ll find it. It is frustrating, but that’s the way.”

Obviously would love an explanation, but also afraid that if they find something even remotely serious, they’ll retire him.

He threw in a clunker over softer going in the Guineas, so it isnt entirely unheard of.
