The going is good, the weather forecast rain Friday but mostly OK Saturday.

The weekend's Group races start off with the Jockey Club Stakes over 2400m with the Harry Charlton trained Time Lock favourite on 15/8.  Ryan Moore has the ride.  Godolphin Appleby-Buick have a serious challenger in Castle Way on 11/4 but there are only 6 runners in the race.

Saturday's 2000 Guineas sees the exciting Irish colt City of Troy by Justify an odds-on favourite.  He's unbeaten and has shown a great turn of foot in races to date which has given him a top rating as a 2yo.  O'Brien-Moore of course.

Rosallion by Blue Point is on 9/2 and is trained by Richard Hannon with Sean Levey riding. He won the Lagardère at Longchamp and is talented.

Godolphin's Notable Speech is by Dubawi and had 3 wins at Kempton on the all-weather but that may not translate into winning form on the Newmarket turf.  He's 9/1.

Our roughie is the Charlie Hills trained Iberian 25/1 with Tom Marquand riding the Lope de Vega colt.
