Porfin
Porfin is a hard-working 8-year-old who has found his level as a steady Class 6 campaigner. Over 105 career races, he has won 11 times and placed a further 41 times—a respectable haul for a horse running regularly at the lower end of the scale. What sets him apart is his consistency at Lingfield Park, where he has won 5 of his 24 races there, a win rate that stands out against his overall 1 in 10 win rate. His last success came at that same track in January 2026, seven months ago, suggesting he knows how to find the winner's circle when conditions and opportunities align.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Based at Phil McEntee's Newmarket yard, Porfin is most often ridden by Grace McEntee, with whom he has won 4 races from 35 outings together. While recent form has been patchy—he hasn't won in his last six races, with finishes ranging from fourth to tenth—he remains an active competitor who raced only a day ago. At Class 6 level, where he typically competes, he wins roughly 1 in every 8 races, which is a meaningful edge. He is a horse that knows his game and his ground, the kind of steady professional that keeps trainers and jockeys coming back. With the right opportunity at a track where he has previously flourished, Porfin could well post another win.
