Curragh options for Godolphin

GODOLPHIN could be doubly-represented in the Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh on Saturday week.

Both Newmarket flop Ibn Khaldun and French Guineas runner-up Rio De La Plata are under consideration for the Boylesports-sponsored Classic.

Fresh from saddling his first winner of the season at York, trainer Saeed bin Suroor suggested that while nothing has come to light for Ibn Khaldun’s flop in the English version, he is showing all the right signs at home.
