Age Of Time

The distance profile tells a similar story. At a mile and one to a mile and two furlongs, Age Of Time has won 2 of its 10 races — one in every five attempts — which is a strong record for a horse at this level. On normal ground it matches that exactly: 2 wins from 11 races, again roughly 1 in 5. The pattern is consistent enough to be meaningful. Get the conditions right and the chances improve sharply; get them wrong and it tends to fill minor placings rather than threaten for the win.

The recent run of form is worth noting, though. Age Of Time has not won in its last six races, finishing ninth, fifth, third, unplaced, second, and third in that stretch. There are placings in there — it is not running badly — but the wins have dried up since October 2025, now eight months ago. A horse that places regularly but cannot convert is a familiar type, and the honest truth is that the level it competes at, Class 6, is the bottom rung of the ladder. These are races designed for horses who need to find the right spot to win.

Trainer Steph Hollinshead, based in Upper Longdon in Staffordshire, has sent out seven winners this season, so the yard is ticking along. Age Of Time raced just yesterday, which suggests it is being kept busy and is in good health. The big question now is whether Hollinshead can find the right Wolverhampton opportunity to unlock that winning feeling again — because when everything lines up at that track, this horse has shown it absolutely can deliver.
