Re: Horse Racing

Quote:
Aidan O'Brien has declared a team of four as he goes for a ninth triumph in the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh on Saturday.
A field of 10 is set to line up for the colts' Classic, with the Ballydoyle trainer responsible for Magician, Flying The Flag, George Vancouver and Gale Force Ten.
Johnny Murtagh was aboard three of the eight O'Brien winners and he aims to get his training career off to a flying start when he saddles Ask Dad and Fort Knox in the one-mile showpiece.
This race has so far eluded trainer Jim Bolger and the Coolcullen handler tries this time with Trading Leather, having removed his four other possibles.
