12th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Jumped well when winning his second chase start at Warwick in September (3m, good to soft) and was reportedly struck into next time at Chepstow, which was a hot novice handicap; retains plenty of potential. |
8/1 |

11th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Sound jumping was a feature in his recent 3m win at Warwick (second chase start; good to soft); up 8lb in a race that will take appreciably more winning but with fitness on his side he's hard to dismiss. |

24th Sep 2024 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Likes Market Rasen and he kept digging (after getting outpaced) to be close up on his chase debut there last month (3m, good); ran well here over hurdles and, off an untouched mark from last time, he should be in the thick of it. |

1st Nov 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Went close in the last of his three Irish points; 0-7 under rules but he's been placed a couple of times including in a maiden hurdle (2m, good) in May; returns after 128 days off but yard is in good form and he needs watching in market on handicap/chase debut. |

26th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Placed on stable/hurdle debut at Stratford (2m, good) in May but that form isn't anything to get too excited about, and he was disappointing when well-held fourth over 2m2f there last time; tongue-tie refitted. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Just the one blip in five runs since joining Henry Oliver and ran his usual honest race when going down narrowly at Hereford in January (2m, soft; effective on drier); the winner of that race has failed to frank the form but this 7yo could still be in the thick of it here. |

2nd 4 |
26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 53y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Won twice for the Newland/Insole stable in the autumn of 2024; creditable efforts in three of his four runs for current yard including when a close second in Market Rasen handicap (2m2f, good to soft) on Boxing Day; up 3lb but he went down fighting last time and that was behind a major improver; respected. |

21st Aug 2024 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Took nine attempts to get off the mark over hurdles but did so with very smooth success in Warwick maiden (2m3f, good) in May and has strong claims here. |

1st 7 |
30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Punchestown bumper winner for Niall Madden in June 2023; highly tried on first three starts for Willie Mullins, running out in the Greatwood on first occasion before creditable sixth at Ascot in December (1m7f, good); bit disappointing when second in a Ballinrobe handicap last time (2m6f, soft; set plenty to do); strong contender in this maiden. |

10st 13lb |
Winning pointer; only modest form on handicap/chase debut, beaten 44l at Stratford (2m1f, good) in June; should be suited by the step back up in trip with cheekpieces returning; others have more pressing claims. |

Exposed pointer, winner of a maiden in April 2023 (3m, good to soft); hasn't built on that and was well beaten at Ffos Las back over hurdles on stable debut last time (2m6f, good to soft); best watched for now. |

0-7 on the Flat (1m4f-2m) for two different yards, once going close in a low-grade handicap at Redcar; makes stable/hurdle debut after a long absence and likely to be outclassed. |

Showed no significant promise when a big-priced outsider in four maiden/novice hurdles (2m3f-2m5f); makes handicap debut from a lowly mark but still needs significant improvement. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Off for more than a year since narrowly beaten over hurdles on his debut for his new jumps-oriented yard last March; that came after almost a year off, so he can go well fresh; market useful under a jockey who's ridden two winners over hurdles this year. |
6/1 |

1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |

Non-stayer upped to 2m3f on final start for Sir Mark Todd last May but previously a keeping-on third at Wincanton (1m7f, good) to a good subsequent winner; interesting switched to a handicap for in-form new yard. |
9/2 |

30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |

Best form over hurdles when third at Wincanton last time (1m7f, good); needs to improve on this first run at further than 2m. |

Verdict
The Mullins raider ONLYAMATTEROFTIME isn’t one for the faint-hearted given his quirks but the ability is there to win a maiden. Those of a forgiving nature could see past G A Henty’s two defeats in handicaps and he appeals as the most likely danger ahead of Minella Miracle.[Alistair Jones]
