Morson sponsored jockey Harry Cobden wins accolade

by Rebekah Valero-Lee on 02th May 2017

Morson would like to congratulate jockey Harry Cobden on being crowned this season’s champion conditional rider at Sandown.

Backed by trainer Paul Nicholls, who is also sponsored by Morson, Cobden has enjoyed plenty of successes along the way.

At the presentation, he talked of the coming months: “Last year I didn’t really ride through the summer but I’ll try to this year and keep a foot in the door at Ditcheat, and have a few rides for Mr [Colin] Tizzard. I’ll keep my head down and keep plugging away.”

Morson are also proud sponsors of jockeys Harry Skelton and Megan Nicholls.
