Ground conditions at Newmarket could be a question mark for the hugely talented Camelot in the Qipco 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on Saturday.
The Aidan O'Brien-trained three-year-old aims to become the first son of Montjeu to win the Rowley Mile Classic, and though 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.
Big-race rider Joseph O'Brien told At The Races: "He has a high cruising speed and ticks the right boxes. I'd be hoping he'd run a nice race. I have to have a question mark over the ground. He's a very good moving horse and won both starts last year on good ground."

Born To Sea has plenty to live up to as a half-brother to Sea The Stars, but he is pleasing his trainer John Oxx ahead of a tilt at the Qipco 2000 Guineas at Newmarket on Saturday.
The handler has been happy with how his colt has gone at home in recent weeks and he does not expect the ground conditions to cause too many problems.
"The weather hasn't hindered us at all. The horse has had a good preparation and he hasn't missed any work," said Oxx.
