O'Brien ready to go to war.

Quote:
Aidan O'Brien is looking for his 10th victory in the Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh and his five-strong team is headed by Newmarket disappointment War Command.
The colt will be aiming to follow in the recent footsteps of Power and Roderic O'Connor, who flopped in the English Guineas before bouncing back to win in Ireland.
O'Brien has stopped short of putting blinkers on War Command, but has opted for cheekpieces.
He said: "Before the Guineas he wasn't working as impressively as Australia and the way they finished is the way they worked at home.
