Your Bets Have A Sporting Chance In The 2000 Guineas 2019

  • Perhaps The Best Flat Race For Three Year Olds In The UK
  • No, 66/1 Isn’t A Sporting Chance In The 2000 Guineas 2019
  • The Rowley Mile Straight With A Purse Of Half A Million

The first of the five classic flat races in the UK always garners a top notch field to run the Rowley Mile at Newmarket. Of course whilst every horse has a sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019 there are very definitely some with more of a chance than Sporting Chance actually gets at bookies like Bet365, one of the best online sportsbook sites in the UK. At 66/1 it’s definitely a longshot but if ever there were a time to be cavalier the 2000 Guineas is it.

Blink and you’ll miss it. Sir Charles Bunbury (who should possibly be making exceedingly good cakes, or flogging overly expensive biscuits) created both this and the 1000 Guineas as a fast paced blast for three year olds. With a mixed field this one is always full of surprises which gives all entrants a sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019 and they aren’t all the outside chance that The Irish Rover is. At 100/1 it’s for dreamers alone, although there will be a fair few risking it.

King Of Change, Duke Of Hazzard, Name The Wind, and Van Beethoven and Azano all get 66/1, the same price as Sporting Chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019, and backing any of them is an exercise of optimism over common sense. Especially when your outside-the-box each-way bet on sports in the UK this weekend is covered by any of the trio currently loitering at 50/1 consisting of Dark Vision, Walkinthesand and RaakibAlhawa none of which stand a hope really.

With sensible trousers on then you might opt for Emaraaty Ana at 40/1 instead or better yet Shine So Bright at 33/1 which has a sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019 to finish in the top three. Ahead of that temptation however, Momkin, Kick On, and Urban Icon all get 25/1 despite sounding like competing bargain clothing stores, and you could find yourself needing to shop at one if you stake the farm on any of those three to win, and each-way there’s better to be had.

2000 Guineas

  • Date: May 4th 2019
  • Track: Newmarket Racecourse
  • Course: Rowley Mile
  • Location: Suffolk, UK
  • Distance: 1m (1,609m)
  • Type: Flat
  • Qualification: 3 y/o
  • Weights: 9st 0lb
  • Surface: Turf
  • Purse: £500,000

This mostly takes the shape of Great Scot and Set Piece at 20/1. The former won over a mile last year, but only got a 2nd over 7 furlongs in April this year, whilst the latter grabbed a tight 3rd despite having won twice at this distance over the winter. Al Hilalee gets 12/1 putting it just behind the two horses that await at 8/1 and have a sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019 to get a sneaky win and could well be worth taking advantage of UK gambling laws to bet upon.

Sporting ChanceIn The 2000 Guineas 2019 Gets 66/1 Odds

 Martyn Meades new runner Advertise is probably a better wager than Royal Marine although neither one are really good on the nose wagers as Madhmoon gathers an attractive 7/1 at Bet365 having won twice at the tail end of last year and got a nice 2nd at Leopardstown at the start of last month. Whether it can keep up with the likes of Skardu, currently getting 13/2, is anyone’s guess but like the other runners come the start it has a fair sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019.

2019 2000 Guineas Odds

  • Momkin – 25/1
  • Urban Icon – 25/1
  • Kick On – 25/1
  • Set Piece – 20/1
  • Great Scot – 20/1
  • Al Hilalee – 12/1
  • Royal Marine – 8/1
  • Advertise – 8/1
  • Madhmoon – 7/1
  • Skardu – 13/2
  • Ten Sovereigns – 5/1
  • Magna Grecia – 3/1

Holding court as favorite right now Magna Grecia gets 3/1 at Bet365, one of the best online betting sites in the UK at present, which puts it just slightly ahead of Ten Sovereigns on 5/1. Magna Grecia won convincingly over this distance last time out and whilst Ten Sovereignsis yet to lose that hasn’t been over quite as far, although given the occasion you’d have to say it has more of a sporting chance in the 2000 Guineas 2019 than most of the rest of this amazing field.
