While no horse to run in the National Stakes has gone on to take the 2000 Guineas in the last five years, four have hit the frame at Newmarket and this contest remains a key trial having been taken by DAWN APPROACH (2012), GLENEAGLES (2014) and CHURCHILL (2016) on the way to Guineas glory in recent times. 2023 winner HENRY LONGFELLOW bids to continue that good record this year.
