The Classic season gets underway with the 2000 Guineas which takes place at the home of Flat Racing Newmarket Racecourse. After the Aintree Grand National all the focus moves towards the 2000 Guineas anti post betting market. The 2000 Guineas is run over the straight mile course and is for 3 year old Colts.
The 2000 Guineas form is always difficult to weigh up as all the potential contenders are only just coming to themselves and that is why the 2000 Guineas betting is always such an open horse race and in recent years the main contenders may only have had one outing prior to the day the Greenham Stakes and the Craven Stakes as are the main prep races for the 2000 Guineas.
The Winner of the 2000 Guineas often goes onto to compete in the Epsom Derby and is usually high up in the Epsom Derby betting but whether they will get 2000 Guineas visit www.betting-directory.com where there are over £2,000 of free bets to choose from the major online bookmakers.
