The fact 19 go to post proves nobody has a certain idea of the winner of the 2000 Guineas as much as one likes to speculate. Ol' Man River 13/2 is the one I'm on. Joey O'Brien's mount. 2 from 2 as a juvenile and both were very satisfactory wins. He'll have learned an awful lot from that and will have come on a fair bit in the past few months for it. The horse has pace and might stay beyond a mile eventually but this is a good stating point for him. Hopefully the ground stays sound enough and he can land the spoils.
Over at Punchestown it's a pair of Tony Martin handicappers that will be carrying my load also in the shape of:
Heathfield 6/1 Punchestown 3:10
Gallant Oscar 5/1 Punchestown 5:00
Bit of money about for both early this evening and both appear to have serious chances on bare form regardless.
Best of luck folks.
