Auguste Rodin this year has been a shining example of what workouts will and will not tell you about what a horse can do on the track. In the meantime, the unfashionable…

YOU DON'T need a bet in today's Group One Sussex Stakes (3.35pm) to enjoy what should be a thrilling battle between this season's top three-year-old, Paddington, and classy four-year-old filly, Inspiral. Earlier in the week, Inspiral made a bit of appeal as an each-way bet-to-nothing at 9/2, but that quickly disappeared and she's a best-price 7/2…

Aidan O'Brien has described Paddington's progress this season as "unusual". "Freakish" might be a more appropriate word to use, when you consider that, in just over four months, Paddington has transformed himself from a 97-rated handicapper into the highest-rated three-year-old in Europe. There's little to be gained from backing Paddington at 1/2,…

It will be a long journey to the Sussex Downs for the four-year-old, with trainer Jerome Reynier based near Marseille in the south of France. However, having produced a career best when denied by a head in the Prix d'Ispahan in May, connections are keen to pick up a share of the £1million prize-fund on offer, en-route to their main objective for…

A firm track and lack of match practice came against northern hemisphere raider Statement at her Australian debut, but connections are anticipating an improved performance under different conditions at Randwick. The dual black-type winner settled midfield in the Emancipation Stakes (1500m) and held her position to be beaten just over five lengths…
