New Zealand 2000 Guineas Form Guide & Tips

(1) Savaglee (Best Bet – $1.55)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

It’s hard to look past Savaglee as the best runner in the field following a big win at Te Rapa against a red-hot field.

This is one of the more disappointing NZ 2000 Guineas fields we’ve seen in history, and Savaglee could take full advantage.

He’s easily the best horse in the race, and he could win by lengths.

(2) So Naive ($11.00)

Ruling out a runner from this stable would be a mistake, so the colt by U S Navy Flag could run into the money.

He comes off a fourth behind Savaglee, and if he can bridge the gap somewhat, he’s good enough to beat the rest of the field.

Don’t overlook his chances at double-figure odds.

(3) He’s Lucid (Best Each Way – $8.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

If the track has some moisture in it, He’s Lucid could firm considerably on race day.

He powered through tough conditions at Riccarton last time out when scoring by 1.3 lengths over a nice type in Raziah.

Getting the inside draw works and the odds are worth snapping up.

(4) Domain Ace ($21.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We liked what he did last season, but he hasn’t come of age this time around. His odds have drifted and they could continue to move in the wrong direction.

(5) Kiwi Skyhawk ($8.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The gelding by Contributer won at Te Rapa earlier this preparation, and something similar to that could take him close.

Being from the Marsh stable is a good sign, and he has been warming to the task, so he’s worth including in selections at each-way odds.

(6) When Stars Align ($35.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

His form this season hasn’t been up to scratch and we don’t see that changing anytime soon.

He has yet to fire in two starts at Riccarton, including finishing 42.5 lengths behind He’s Lucid in wet conditions last start.

That run doesn’t fill us with confidence.

(7) Customized (Best Roughie – $26.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He only broke maidens three starts back at Ruakaka, but he has upside after finishing close behind Overdrawn and Raziah recently.

The colt by Capitalist could sneak under the radar, and although he isn’t as special as the favourite, he is built tough.

Include him at generous odds.

(8) Love Poem ($5.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The filly has been well-backed to win after running third behind standout age-group runner Alabama Lass.

She is good enough to figure in the finish at each-way odds, and a betting push on race day would be a good sign for the daughter of Snitzel.
