Horse Racing - Irish 2,000 Guineas

The Irish equivalent of the race run at Newmarket, this is usually held three weeks later in late May over a mile (1,609 metres) at The Curragh in County Kildare. It is restricted to three-year-old colts and fillies, although it is generally considered to be a race for male horses with the Irish 1,000 Guineas the race for the females of the species.
