'Pinatubo should win the 2,000 Guineas but there are better bets'

After what the world has been through, it would be pretty tremendous for a real racing superstar to emerge just six days after the sport recommences – and Pinatubo is capable of just that.

He was unbelievable last season and his National Stakes victory is a race I suspect we will be remembering for a long time. You can argue and bicker over almost every race and performance, but not that one, it was faultless.

I would love to see Pinatubo do something similar the Qipco 2,000 Guineas, but I will be keeping my betting accounts socially distanced from him at the current prices. Charlie Appleby's comments are extremely positive and upbeat but we're looking at one of most unpredictable races in the most uncertain of times – the even-money price is probably fair, but I'm not going anywhere near it.
