The Weekend Winners team are back with a look ahead to the Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh on Saturday, as well as picks from Haydock and Goodwood.
Field Of Gold heads the market as he seeks Classic redemption following a much-talked-about defeat in the Newmarket equivalent under Kieran Shoemark.
Colin Keane does the steering this time for Juddmonte, who have three runners in the race, while the challengers also include the returning Hotazhell.
Host Kate Tracey…
“I’m expecting Field Of Gold to take all the beating. I was with him in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket and the only concern I have here is the track.
“My betting angle is Hotazhell each-way. He showed a great attitude in the Futurity when we last saw him.
“I know this is a belated reappearance and we’ve got to hope the rain comes, but I think he’s overpriced.”

At The Races’ Declan Rix…
“I think Field Of Gold’s form is comfortably better than the rest of the field and he could improve again.
“Windlord could be the key in this race in terms of how it’s run. I wonder if he’s in here to tee it up for Field Of Gold?
“I think Field Of Gold will win but I’m going to approach this race in the betting without the favourite market. If you take Field Of Gold out of the equation, it’s a brilliant betting race.
“In that market, Rashabar is 8/1 and I just can’t believe that price. We shouldn’t forget he finished ahead of Field Of Gold in the Jean-Luc Lagardere.
“He might be that price because he missed the French Guineas but that was because of a temperature, nothing drastic, so if the vibes are right I think he’s a cracking each-way bet without Field Of Gold.”

BetVictor’s Sam Boswell…
“This is a really good renewal of this race and Juddmonte are looking to continue what’s been a fine season for them.
“I really like Field Of Gold but I don’t like the price. I’m expecting him to drift because people will want to take him on.
“I just felt that reappearance against Wimbledon Hawkeye was so impressive and what got lost about the 2000 Guineas ride was it was still a fine effort to finish where he did.
“At odds against I’d be with the horse.”

Scheffler makes big move at Colonial as Griffin and Schmid share lead
Scottie Scheffler made seven birdies and an eagle in the third round at the Charles Schwab Challenge in Texas with Robert MacIntyre also edging himself into contention.Coming off his third major victory at the PGA Championship a week ago, but starting the weekend 10 strokes off the lead, Scheffler is tied for seventh after shooting 6 under (64) after plundering seven birdies and an eagle. "You are always going to hope to go play a perfect round. It basically never happens," Scheffler said. "I mean, three bogeys definitely hurts, especially when you are trying to chase, but overall I did some good things."Scheffler will need another spectacular round Sunday to become the first player since Dustin Johnson in 2017 to win in three starts in a row, and the only player other than Ben Hogan in 1946 to win the […]
How Arsenal crafted their second Women’s Champions League title: ‘Being calm, clear and ruthless’
Arsenal Women are champions of Europe (again).Eighteen years after becoming the first English side to win the Champions League, they are now the first team to go all the way through the qualifying rounds to lift the trophy.In a rollercoaster season that began with high-profile player departures, on-pitch frustrations and managerial changes, Renee Slegers leading Arsenal to the European summit feels nearly impossible. They beat perennial Champions League winners Barcelona 1-0 after despatching record-holders Olympique Lyonnais in the semi-finals.AdvertisementBut, hey, this is the year of the underdog, isn’t it?When Arsenal’s Champions League campaign began in September, with a 6-0 qualification win over Rangers, Slegers was still part of then-head coach Jonas Eidevall’s backroom staff. She was an academy player at Arsenal when they last won the Champions League, and Eidevall brought her back to work as an individual development coach.Slegers’ focus […]

Tyson Fury shoots down talk of return from retirement: ‘I’m retired and I’m staying retired’
Getty Images When multi-time former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury recently shared a video of himself training in the gym with coach SugarHill Steward and said, "You know what's coming," speculation kicked off that Fury would end his retirement, possibly to face Anthony Joshua in a long-awaited U.K. super fight. Fury threw cold water on those hopes with a video posted to Instagram on Saturday."I hear a lot of talk of the Gypsy King returning to boxing. What would I return for? More boxing belts? I've won 22 of them," Fury said. "... But I'm happy, I'm happy, contented with what I have achieved, what I've accomplished. I've been around the world and back again." Fury announced his retirement from boxing in January after suffering his second consecutive defeat against Oleksandr Usyk. While it may have been an appropriate time for […]
Kyle Larson, another Indy 500/NASCAR ‘Double’ try, and a GOAT legacy in reach
INDIANAPOLIS — In the most recent NASCAR Cup Series points race, Kyle Larson led 83 percent of the laps, won his third race of the still-young season and took over the series points lead heading into his Memorial Day Weekend “Double” attempt.Given his frequent success, Larson’s NASCAR rivals would have every reason not to like him. But among his peers, seemingly no one feels that way.AdvertisementAnd after winning 26 Cup Series races since the start of 2021, they would also have every reason to cheer against him. But when the NASCAR drivers watch Larson in Sunday’s Indianapolis 500, awaiting their turn to race against him in Charlotte’s 600-mile race that night, many will be doing the opposite.“Yeah, I root for him,” two-time NASCAR champion Kyle Busch said. “I wish him well in that endeavor. You hope one of your fellow […]
