GUINEA WEEKEND
Good morning racing fans and welcome to Newmarket as Sun Racing takes you through the action from Guinea weekend.
The first classic of this season with the 2000 Guineas will take place this afternoon at 3:40 a.m.
It’s an open affair with flip-flop favorites, including this morning – and some big drifters.
Wembley for Aidan O’Brien was the first favorite this morning but was replaced by Thunder Moon for son Joseph O’Brien.
Mutasaabeq had also received support, but this morning it shifted only slightly.
A lot of money for the Godolphin horse Master Of The Seas – the choice for William Buick.
That choice has raised the chances for the other horse on the farm, One Ruler, to now double-digit prices after leading the market last weekend.
Frankie Dettori says he’s very excited about his eventual ride and thinks he’ll have “as good a chance as anyone” if he teamed up with O’Brien Sr. with Battleground.
Before that is another interesting thing in group 2 over 1m4f.
Sir Ron Priestley is likely to become a favorite with Pyledriver and Al Zaraqaan on their heels in the market this morning.
Templegate and Matt Chapman are back with their picks for today and we will have them throughout the afternoon as well as the best betting offers to hopefully win a few extra winners.
We start at 1:15 p.m. – construction will follow!
