Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 29 Journalists Share Posted April 29 Twain (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}) is a doubtful runner in Saturday's Betfred 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket due to an unsatisfactory scope, Coolmore revealed on Tuesday. “Following his work this morning, Twain (Wootton Bassett) didn't scope 100% so is unlikely to run in the 2,000 Guineas @NewmarketRace and may now be aimed at the Irish 2,000 Guineas instead,” read a statement posted to X by Coolmore (@coolmorestud). “Expanded (Wootton Bassett) is likely to be @Ballydoyle's only runner in the 2,000 Guineas on Saturday.” Unbeaten in two starts as a juvenile, including the G1 Criterium International, Twain had been Betfred's 5/1 second favourite for the first British Classic of the season prior to this announcement. That position in the betting is now occupied by last year's G1 Dewhurst Stakes runner-up, Expanded (Ire) (Wootton Bassett {GB}), after his participation was confirmed.
