The 2023 Guineas Festival kicked off at Newmarket on Friday. The feature race on day one, the Jockey Club Stakes was won in dominant fashion by Hurricane Lane, who bounced back to winning form with an excellent front-running performance.

Charlie Appleby had earlier watched William Buick ride Castle Way to victory in the card-opening Newmarket Stakes. Stablemate Native Trail then suffered defeat in the bet365 Mile, as Mutasaabeq made all under Jim Crowley to beat the short-priced favourite.

Sean Levey and Richard Hannon teamed up to win the King Charles II Stakes with the consistent Shouldvebeenaring. Andrea Atzeni then rode The Gatekeeper to victory in the Nyetimber Handicap for Charlie Johnston.

The two maiden stakes on the card at Newmarket were both won by the favourites, with George Boughey's Soprano being followed into the winners' enclosure by Sir Michael Stoute's Infinite Cosmos.
