2000 Guineas Day, and I've gone with Camelot to win. I think he's the standout in the field, and the one that's probably trained on the most over the winter. I had considered taking the 14/1 available for an each way bet on Top Offer, but I kept coming back to Camelot, and I don't think he'll be beaten. If you don't like backing favourites, consider Tip Offer e/w or in betting without the favourite (8/1 available).
It also look like the ground is drying out, which should suit big hope Lightening Pearl tomorrow.
Three selections today:

2pt Win bet
Current Betfair price: 5.2
Best available elsewhere: 9/2 (sportingbet, BetVictor, Stan James)

Thanks,
