The Inch point-to-point venue in County Cork, has long since been recognised as a staging post for stars of the future. We could have another after De Name Escapes Me careered away with the concluding Powerstown INH Flat Race at Clonmel under trainer/rider Liz Lalor.
De Name Escapes Me's Inch seventh placing, was form that took a boost as recently as yesterday, when the third home on that mid-April day last year, Double Shuffle, scored at odds of 50/1 at Doncaster.
De Name Escapes, owned by Lalor's partner, Tom Keating, was a 20/1 shot (from 25s) and he led two furlongs out, before showing an impressive change of gear in the final furlong for an eight and a half length and two and three parts of a length win from the Gigginstown House Stud pair, Roman Gold, and Nickname Exit.
"That's my first winner as a trainer-I did my trainers' course at the same time as Nina (Carberry), about two years ago, and only have a couple in training," said Miss Lalor in the aftermath.
"We passed Patrick (Mullins, on the favourite, Nickname Exit) no bother at all, and he's a lovely horse who is for sale."
