Who was more impressive: Too Darn Hot or Ten Sovereigns?
Three Racing Post tipsters assess the two juvenile winners
Sovereigns my idea of the Guineas winner
Since Calyx got injured the two-year-old scene has been tepid to say the least. That was until Saturday when Ten Sovereigns and Too Darn Hot oozed star quality.
Too Darn Hot simply has to be top-class given his pedigree, and the way he strode away from a good field in the Solario was awesome. My worry as far as the Guineas is concerned would be very fast ground at Newmarket, but he certainly has the class to be a massive factor.
The issue with Ten Sovereigns will be the trip, but he has been really strong at the finish over 6f and it looks certain he would stay 7f well. He and Calyx look to be seriously quick and of that pair I think Ten Sovereigns is the more likely to stay a mile. At the moment he would be my idea of the Guineas winner.
