Porters Corner

The most recent outing came just a day ago, when Porters Corner finished third. Before that came a second-place finish, a result that would have felt tantalisingly close. These back-to-back placings hint at a horse that is competitive and capable, even if the timing has not quite fallen into place. Trained by P Twomey at a yard in Cashel, Co Tipperary that has already sent out 35 winners this season, Porters Corner is in the hands of someone who clearly knows how to get horses to the line first. The fact that the horse is still racing and still being brought out regularly suggests the yard sees potential worth developing. At three years old, Porters Corner is still early in a racing career, and horses can take time to find their feet. The question now is whether those near-misses turn into victories in the races ahead.
