When is the 2000 Guineas 2024? Newmarket date, start time, runners and betting

This year's Classic should be a cracker!

2000 Guineas

The hype is building for this year’s 2000 Guineas at Newmarket after a number of two-year-old colts put their best hooves forward last season.

City Of Troy emerged as the leading contender after trouncing a bunch of talented rivals in the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes, which prompted Aidan O’Brien to hail the Justify colt as the best juvenile he has ever trained.

The first Classic of the 2024 British Flat season is unlikely to be a straightforward job, however, as Wiltshire-based trainer Richard Hannon is effusive in his praise of Group 1 winner Rosallion, who could have the speed to get the job done, while Ghostwriter looks an extremely smart prospect for Clive Cox.
