Coastguard Station

His strongest ground is at distances between a mile and six furlongs and two miles, where he has won 2 from 7 races — that's nearly 1 in every 3, which is a noticeably sharper record than across his career overall. In other words, when the conditions suit him in terms of trip, he becomes a more dangerous proposition. His bread and butter is Class 4 competition — one rung below the top tier but still a decent level — where he has won 3 from 11 races, or just over 1 in 4. That is a horse who knows his level and performs well within it.

The highlight of his career came on 30 June 2024, when he won a Class 2 race at Uttoxeter — one of the better races you can win in British racing outside the very top events. That result stands out on his CV and suggests that on his best day, he is capable of punching above his usual weight. His most recent win came at Market Rasen in September 2025, so while recent form shows a mixed spell — finishing second and fourth before a couple of quieter outings — he is clearly not done yet.

Henry Oliver, who trains him out of Abberley in Worcestershire, has sent out 7 winners already this season, so the yard is in decent nick. Jockey David Noonan has the strongest relationship with this horse, winning 3 of their 14 races together — that's a win rate of 21%, or roughly 1 in every 5 — and when those two line up together, it is worth paying attention. Coastguard Station first won back in April 2022 at Southwell, and three and a half years later he is still collecting prizes. That kind of longevity is rarer than it looks.
