Jason Weaver reached the century mark of winners for the fourth successive season when scoring on Tallulah Belle at Redcar yesterday. He brought the well-backed 6 to 4 favourite with a good run in the final quarter of a mile to catch Classic Find near the finish and win by half a length in the Teleprompter Limited Stakes.

Weaver will ride in Britain for the rest of the week but after racing at Newmarket on Saturday he jets out to St Lucia for a holiday before travelling on to fulfill a riding contract in Hong Kong.

Weaver is set to start in the former colony on November 24th but will be back race riding in Britain next February.

"I am pleased to get the ton up again and I am looking forward very much to Hong Kong," he said afterwards.
