Lynam, based at Dunshaughlin in Co Meath, has built a reputation for squeezing wins out of modest horses, and Jon Riggens fits that profile perfectly. When Jon Riggens is ridden by his regular partner Ben Coen, the pair click: they have won 2 of their 12 races together, a 17% win rate that is markedly better than his overall record. His last win came at Navan on 7 June 2026 — four months ago — suggesting the horse is not yet past his best.
The horse also has a clear preference for wet ground. He has won 2 of his 6 races on soft or heavy going, a 33% win rate that stands out sharply against his overall form. This is useful information for anyone watching his entries: when the forecast calls for rain and Navan is on the card, Jon Riggens becomes a different proposition. His recent form, though, has been patchy — his last six runs have yielded just one top-3 finish in that sequence — which suggests he may be in a dip. But at eight years old, with a team that understands his quirks, there is likely more to come.
