O GRANDE DIA DE LEOPARDSTOWN

Acredito que nunca O'Brien tenha vindo para uma guerra tão bem armado como desta feita. Dois cavalos com chance o Irish Derby winner Fame and Glory e o Irish Two thousand Guineas winner Mastercraftsman e mais três pacemakers de luxo. Tudo isto para enfrentar Sea the Stars, que na última não demonstrou tanta pujança como nas vezes anteriores.
