What is the 2000 Guineas?
The 2000 Guineas is a Group 1 Flat race run at Newmarket and is a huge event for three-year-old colts.
The race was first run in 1809, and was created five years before the fillies' equivalent, the 1000 Guineas, with the names equating to the prize fund (a guinea amounted to £1.05). The race quickly grew in stature and is now served by several trial races, including the Craven Stakes at Newmarket and the Greenham Stakes at Newbury - while the 2000 Guineas itself is a recognised trial for the Epsom Derby. The last colt to win both the 2000 Guineas and the Derby in the same season was the Aidan O'Brien-trained Camelot in 2012.
What happened in the 2022 renewal of the 2000 Guineas?
Charlie Appleby trained the first two home in the 2000 Guineas Coroebus beat Native Trail in a thrilling renewal of the first Classic of the season, which saw the Aidan O'Brien-trained Luxembourg finish in third place.
