Eleven declared for 2,000 Guineas Just eleven horses have been declared for the Abu Dhabi 2,000 Guineas in the Curragh on Saturday, with Pathfork among the notable absentees from the line up in the first Irish Classic of the season. Richard Hannon's Dubawi Gold, who finished second to Frankel in the English equivalent , fourth-placed Slim Shadey and Michael Dods' Ashva are the possible British representatives. Aidan O'Brien has five still involved through High Ruler, Master Of Hounds, Oracle, Roderic O'Connor and Zoffany, while Kevin Prendergast's Dunboyne Express, John Jospeh Murphy’s Foolproof and Zabarajad from the John Oxx stable complete the line-up. Trainer of Pathfork Jessica Harrington said there was nothing amiss with him, reporting: "He is fine, but I've been away for a week and haven't yet talked to the owners (the Silverton Hill Partnership) about making a plan for him." Paddy Power Bet: 7/4 Dubawi Gold, 7/2 Roderic O'Connor, Dunboyne Express, Zoffany, 7/1 Zabarajad, 12/1 Master of Hounds, 20/1 Slim Shadey, 25/1 High Ruler, Oracle, 200/1 Foolproof, Ashva.
