Catchim

Trained by the father-and-son partnership of Charles and Adam Pogson out of Farnsfield in Nottinghamshire, Catchim operates in the mid-tier of the racing ladder, most often in Class 4 company — a level where races are competitive but not elite. The yard has sent out 12 winners already this season, which suggests a stable in decent form, and Catchim has done its bit. The most recent win came at Market Rasen just six weeks ago, on 14 April 2026 — and with a race under its belt as recently as yesterday, this is clearly a horse being kept busy while in form.

That recent form makes for interesting reading: 5th, 1st, 3rd, a blank run, 5th, 2nd — so in the last five completed finishes, Catchim has won once and placed twice. That is the profile of a horse hitting a decent patch right now. The first career win came at Southwell back in June 2024, so it took a while to get off the mark, but the Market Rasen victory shows it has not been a one-time story.

One slight curiosity is the record with regular jockey Charlie Todd, who has ridden Catchim in 6 of its 15 races without getting a win from any of them. That is not necessarily damning — plenty of those rides may have ended in places — but it is worth noting that both of Catchim's wins have come without Todd in the saddle. At 8 years old, Catchim is not a young horse with potential still to unlock; what you see is largely what you get. But what you get, at the moment, is a consistent competitor that wins around once every seven or eight races and has just come off a victory. For a mid-level jumper ticking along nicely in the hands of a local yard doing good work this season, that is a perfectly solid profile.
