About

Curley Finger is an 8yo from Ireland, trained by R. Menzies. It is sired by the stallion Getaway out of the dam Tooreen. With 5 wins under its belt, Curley Finger's most notable triumph came on February 5, 2024, at Musselburgh in the Pertemps Network Group Handicap Hurdle, where it won $15,609. Backing Curley Finger throughout its career would have resulted in a 71% return on investment for punters. The horse has proven to be profitable.
