THERE will again be two Newmarket Breeze-Up Sales this spring, the second being the Guineas Sale, which returned there in 2012 after one year in Ireland. With the new horses in training section starting it off, it will be held on Friday, May 1st.

The catalogue for the Guineas Breeze-Up is larger than the Craven, as it contains 187 well-bred candidates, which are preceded by 87 horses in training and four broodmares (covered to southern hemisphere time). All the two-year-olds will breeze once, on the morning of Thursday, April 30th. Recent group winners from this sale include the fine sprinter Hot Streak and Lady Pimpernel.
