Hughie Morrison (born 7 November 1960) is a British racehorse trainer who specialises in training horses competing in Flat racing.
Morrison is the son of James Morrison, 2nd Baron Margadale, and was educated at Eton College. He was advised by the trainer Henry Cecil to see life outside racing before training[1] and initially worked in the pharmaceutical industry and ran a lighting company in Manchester.[2]
He began training horses in 1997 having bought a stable at East Ilsley the previous September, after a two-year period as assistant trainer to Paul Cole. His first major success came in National Hunt racing but he has subsequently concentrated on Flat racing.[2]
In February 2022, Morrison trained his 1000th winner.
