Newmarket ground concerns for Camelot connections

Ground conditions at Newmarket could be a question mark for the hugely talented Camelot in the Qipco 2000 Guineas at Newmarket tomorrow .

The Aidan O’Brien-trained three-year-old aims to become the first son of Montjeu to win the Rowley Mile Classic, and it would be particularly poignant if he could strike in the year the top-class racehorse and sire passed away.

While Montjeu’s progeny generally act well with cut in the ground, Camelot showed a brilliant turn of foot on a sound surface to run away with last season’s Racing Post Trophy.
