2000 Guineas Day

2000 Guineas day at Newmarket with three other UK flat meetings too.Bits of rain on the radar but it looks like it's unlikely to affect the current going.Newmarket,Doncaster and Goodwood should be decent fast ground and Thirsk no worse than Good.Monitor the northern courses though as any rain that falls is likely to be there.
Plenty of horses made the short list today but at this stage I'm not sure to be backing anything so no advised bets.Poor draws,lack of pace,going concerns and no fat in the odds on offer means it looks like I'll be playing mainly on the lay side of the exchange today.
Despite it already being the Guineas meeting this flat season still seems very raw and patchy.It's pointless complaining about how the Winter all weather racing impacts on the start of the turf season as it's a fact of life but it certainly complicates things.
Plenty of time for things to develop yet today so I'll tweet any late mail
