Auguste Rodin (4/11), White Birch (6/1), Sprewell (13/2), San Antonio (16/1), Up And Under (28/1), Adelaide River (33/1), Proud And Regal (33/1), Peking Opera (66/1), Covent Garden (80/1)

AUGUSTE RODIN produced a high-class performance to run down subsequent King Edward VII winner King of Steel in the Epsom Derby and can become the first horse since Harzand in 2016 to complete the Derby double. Sprewell and White Birch both weren't seen to best effect behind the selection at Epsom and they have solid claims of making the frame again.
