Connor Murtagh's Rides Today

Opened account at this C&D in July. Not seen to best effect when sixth of 10 in handicap at Chester (14.4f, soft, 50/1) 8 days ago, left poorly placed. Could still have more to offer back down in trip.

Four wins from 6 runs this year, with latest success at Newmarket in August. Shaped well when third of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 9/4) 16 days ago, not ideally placed and meeting trouble. Can resume winning ways.

Off the mark at Ripon in August and has been holding his form well since, second of 5 in handicap (3/1) at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 7 days ago. Can give another good account.

Below form when last of 6 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, good to soft, 8/1) 15 days ago, though unsuited by steady gallop. Improvement required as he drops in trip with cheekpieces applied.

Successful twice at Beverley this summer. Below expectations when fifth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good, 9/4) 48 days ago, but no surprise to see him get back on track after a break.

Failed to build on promise of previous run when ninth of 14 in handicap (10/3) at Southwell (11.1f) 18 days ago. Bounce back called for returned to turf.

Matched previous form on first run since leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien when third of 5 in minor event at Carlisle (9f, good to firm, 125/1) 17 days ago. Needs to take a step forward on his handicap debut.
