2000 Guineas - 2021

I'm not sure if there is a section for flat racing "To win today and..." but I saw a couple today
Royal Champion to win the Feilden and 2000GNs - 40/1 - Hills
Duke of Mantua to win 14.10 and 2000GNs - 80/1 Sky
 
Andy Holding put Mithras up at 50/1 back in Sep-19 on the back of debut where fluffed start but made up miles quite impressively. Got beaten odds on next time out (dwelt again at start) in a C5.

Got first win under belt in a class 5 at Newcastle with a better start in November at 5/4 - and is entered up this Friday at Newbury in a class 2. Will be keeping an eye out to see how gets on. 40/1 is still widely available.
 
Wouldn't put anyone off backing Highland Avenue @ 50/1 EW for this. I've backed 100 down to 40 and really like him. He comes under the radar but is going his winning hands and heals on the AW. Racing tomorrow, expect him to run well and price to completely go.

What a run! Be blitzed them. Serious horse

Been on the golf course so not had much of a look

Hopefully its stable money
 
....Hills have Master of the Sea to win Craven & 2k gns @ 28-1
 
"I'd love to run four in the Guineas if I thought they had a great chance, but I don't want to lose this horse in trying to roll the dice with him because there are big races to be won for sure."

While Master Of The Seas and La Barrosa go on Guineas trial on Thursday, Appleby revealed that Group 1 Vertem Futurity runner-up One Ruler is heading straight for the 2,000 Guineas on May 1.
 
...’to win Greenham & 2k gns’:

Chindit 25-1 (Hills & Sky)
Fundamental 80-1 (Hills)
 
Given chindit is 16/1 just to win the guineas that doesn't seem very generous
 
Scratched from 2000 Guineas:

Albasheer
Baradar
Beloccio
Cadillac

High Definition
Highland Avenue

I'm all over Van Gogh, and to a lesser extent Wembley, for this - I think both have been overlooked.
 
Been with Thunder Moon since his second run and on at 36-1 price boost, fairly confident with him and didn't feel the need to cover the bet
 
I did until listening to Joseph O'brien this week saying he should stay the mile well, time will tell I guess
 
Itll depend whether Ryan chooses him or SMB

I suspect whatever he rides will be fav at the off
