Phono grounding when using integrated w/ floating ground?


I use my integrated's phono stage. The amplifier is a floating ground design (no ground prong). My turntable has a 3 pronged plug. The outlet everything is plugged into is grounded. My question is thus:

Should I use the grounded power cable for my turntable, or buy a 2-prong power cable? I wonder if issues could arise if I ground the TT to earth *and* to my integrated? Conversely, I could ground the TT to earth and forgo the ground wire to my integrated.

What is considered best practice here, or should I just experiment? Thanks!
