Jockeys Taking Aim

Sly Man's Jockeys Taking Aim — Sunday 21 June 2026

The riders I'm watching today — the loaded books, the marquee bookings, the form jocks pinging the radar.

Five riders worth watching today. A loaded book is a market signal in itself — when a form jock has multiple chances, the yard sees the day as live. I read the diaries with one eye on the silks, one on the trainer form. Here's what's caught my eye.

4 Wins last 7d

⚡ Connor Beasley is running hot right now — four winners in the last seven days from a man whose season strike rate sits at a solid 15% over 255 rides. The 15:05 is the one to watch: Coedana carries a speed rating of 115, and Beasley's name in that saddle is not a booking you walk past today.

Harry Skelton

⚡ Harry Skelton is in the form of his life right now — four winners in the last seven days from a man already running at 27% across 607 career rides tells you this isn't a hot streak, it's a standard Tuesday for him.

Billy Loughnane

6 rides 18% 6 wins · 7d

⚡ Billy Loughnane is the hottest jockey on the card right now — six winners in seven days is not a purple patch, it's a full-blown purple week. Six rides today at an 18% career clip means the maths alone hands you at least one winner before you've even looked at the form.

David Allan

⚡ David Allan is riding the hottest streak of his week — four winners in the last seven days — and the bookings have followed, with six rides spread across the card today.
