Iwantmytimewithyou

The most telling number in the profile is the record over longer distances. When races are run at a mile and three-quarters or beyond, Iwantmytimewithyou wins half of them — 3 from 6. That is not a coincidence. It is the mark of a horse that genuinely needs time and space to find its rhythm, one that gets better the longer it runs. Plenty of horses look promising over shorter trips and then find their limitations; this one is the opposite. Give it room to build, and it delivers.

Ed Dunlop trains out of Newmarket, one of the most famous racing towns in the world, and his yard has been in fine form this season with 36 winners already sent out. That is the kind of operation that knows exactly when a horse is ready, and the fact that Iwantmytimewithyou is racing so frequently and finishing so consistently suggests the team have found a groove with it. The horse broke through for its first career win at Ripon in July 2025, and the most recent victory came just this week at Great Yarmouth on 20 May 2026 — so this is a horse operating at the top of its confidence right now.

The one caveat worth noting is the record in Class 5 races, which are the more competitive contests it has been asked to tackle: 0 wins from 5. Every time the horse has stepped up in class, it has come up short. That is not a crisis — plenty of good horses have a level they are most comfortable at — but it does mean the current winning streak has been built in slightly easier company. Whether Dunlop opts to try Class 5 again on the back of this form, or sticks to races where the horse can dominate, will be interesting to watch. For now, though, Iwantmytimewithyou is a horse in form, in the right hands, and very much in the conversation.
