THE first two Classics of the season take place this weekend at ”Headquarters” and we will have two fairly tight favourites for both the colts’ and fillies’ events with the John and Thady Gosden-trained Field of Gold a tight market leader for the former, following a hugely impressive comeback success in the Craven Stakes over the course and distance a fortnight ago.

What made it even more emphatic was the view from the handlers that this son of Kingman was only 80 per cent fit and physically you could tell he needed the run to put an edge on him. Ruling Court looks the best of the Godolphin squad although I would be a little wary that both he and the favourite wouldn’t want the ground rattling fast with the same remark applying to Craven second Wimbledon Hawkeye.

So looking outside of that trio I fancy a huge run at an each-way price in the form of the Irish raider GREEN IMPACT (3.35) in this 2,000 Guineas.
