Re: Horse Racing
United States Classic case.

The United States bids to build on a narrow debut success last season when he tackles the Leopardstown 2,000 Guineas Trial Stakes at the Dublin track on Sunday.
A half-brother to the classy filly Fire Lily, he is trainer Aidan O'Brien's sole representative from six original entries.
"He's only run once and Sunday will be his first run in a long time," said his jockey Joseph O'Brien.
"We're happy with him, he's ready to start off, but because he hasn't run in so long he might be a little bit rusty. That's why we're putting the cheekpieces on, just to sharpen him up a bit. Hopefully he'll run a nice race."
