Tolka Row

Recent form tells the real story. In the last six outings, Tolka Row has managed only one win and one place, with two unplaced runs sandwiched around those results. The horse raced just a day ago, so it remains active and in work for trainer David M O'Brien at Piltown. O'Brien's yard has had a modest season, with just one winner sent out so far, which puts Tolka Row into context — this is not a powerhouse operation, but rather a small Irish yard working with limited ammunition. For a horse that waited until its fifth race to record a win, finding another victory will be the key question. Tolka Row has shown it can get the job done, but only sporadically. Whether it can develop into a more regular winner, or whether it will remain a one-time winner with occasional placings, depends on the next few months of racing.
