2000 Guineas Betting Odds

Every year in early May, the 2000 Guineas Stakes, a high-ranking Group 1 flat race, happens. Newmarket is ground zero for this race, taking place on the renowned Rowley Mile where the action is for 1 mile. Colt thoroughbreds and fillies, at the spry age of three, are all eligible to compete. The 2000 Guineas is one of the five iconic Classic races. Not just that, it's also the starting point for the prestigious Triple Crown, which includes the Derby and St Leger. 

What Are The Popular 2000 Guineas Betting Markets? 

Here are the popular 2000 Guineas betting markets. 

2000 Guineas Winner Betting 

2000 Guineas winner betting is essentially betting on the horse that will cross the line first. The market is available as an ante-post market right now, but the odds list is long as declarations for the race haven't been made. City of Troy starts as the odds-on favourite, but the odds are subject to change as May approaches. Odds in the winner betting market will also change when declarations have been made. 

Each Way Betting 

There's often a field of around fourteen runners in the 2000 Guineas, so picking out the horse to win the race may not be appealing to some punters. However, hope is not lost, as each way betting is available for the race, with BetVictor, among others, paying three players at 1/5 of the odds. Therefore, bettors can place a wager, and a return is possible if their selection finishes third. 

Forecast 

In the 2000 Guineas betting, forecast betting offers a unique twist, much like each-way betting. A forecast bet is where you bet on the two horses you think will come first and second - in that exact order. A reverse forecast switches it up a bit - the two horses you pick can finish in any slot, first or second.

  Who Are The Favourites To Win The 2000 Guineas? 

Even though the 2000 Guineas race is months away, punters are already picking out horses they envision may compete and potentially win from betting markets from BetVictor. At the time of writing, one horse in particular, City of Troy, stands out as the top choice, though this may change. City of Troy, undefeated and trained by Aidan O'Brien, is ridden by Ryan Moore. 

Coming in at a close second, judging by current betting odds, is another horse, Henry Longfellow, also under Aidan O'Brien's tutelage and ridden by Ryan Moore. Henry Longfellow is also undefeated. It will be fascinating to see if O'Brien, a numerous-time 2000 Guineas victor as a trainer, decides to run both horses in the race.
