AP McCoy The Legend

Well done if you picked that out. You must have some sort of system :lol:
 
Loves his footy.

He may be getting older but he's adapted and rides with much more finesse these days.

The numbers haven't changed so I doubt were stuck with him until he thinks there's a possibility he'll lose the title.

Another nice winner today and a sure fire double at Cartmel tomorrow you could live off the winners he's had since Galway.

Before anybody kicks off, this is not a criticism of AP as I agree he's a legend.

But wtf is a jump jockey doing riding 100 winners by mid August ?

Picking up Maguire's rides certainly helps. Add in the fact that the thought of not being champion jockey just drives him on relentlessly. He's a machine.
 
Barring a career ending inury, 5000 must be in his sights now.

Just checked and he is still quite a way off that milestone.

Maybe he will call it a day when he wins the gold cup on More Of That!

He'll be winning it on Holywell first along with the GN on 77 so he and I can retire at the same time!

I suspect AP is in the Holywell camp too and you could understand keeping MOThurdling as the division looks weak but I would favour a novice chasing route.

Being at the top of his game is not enough to stop him falling - and quite possibly being killed or left in a wheelchair for life - from the top of a horse.

Much as I like to watch him in action, he's pushed his luck enough and should get out sooner rather than later. Imho :)

The way he's going at present he's likely to surpass Lester Piggott's 4493 winners in early 2016!

Then Pat Eddery's 4633 and who knows then Gordon Richards' all-time record of 4870, though a solid odds-against shot to do that I reckon
 
Takes the first two at Worcester and at least 3 more great chances.
Sheer determination got both of them up

He will be fondly remembered for killing three of the best horses he ever sat on.
