CONOR SHOEMARK, conditional jockey with Coln St Dennis-based trainer Fergal O’Brien and Wilts & Glos Standard , had an unusual riding double this week.

He rode O’Brien’s Me and Ben to an 8-1 victory in the Clieveragh Handicap Chase at Listowel in Ireland – his only ride on Sunday.

Twenty four hours later he was back in the winners’ enclosure, this time for trainer Phil Middleton, when Exitas triumphed in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter.
