Getmyfriend

That sole victory came at Southwell just this week, on 11 May 2026, making Getmyfriend very much a horse to follow right now. Southwell is a distinctive track — an all-weather, oval circuit that suits certain horses more than others, and Getmyfriend clearly took to it. Before that, the horse had finished third on its only other run, so there are no bad days on the record, just two trips out and two times in the prizes.

What gives this profile extra weight is who is doing the training. Dan Skelton, based at Alcester in Warwickshire, is one of the most productive yards in the country right now — 194 winners sent out this season alone. That is not a yard where horses drift through unnoticed. When Skelton runs a horse, there is usually a plan behind it, and a first win this early in a racing career, with a tidy record behind it, suggests Getmyfriend is being brought along carefully and well. With just two races under its belt and an immediate win on the board, there is plenty of road ahead.
