A P McCoy

[Eggs]

I have no interest in horse racing but this achievement is crazy. Read his manager (i think) bought everyone a drink at the racecourse too.

...suspect that was the one and only JP McManus. I know he was at Towcester today hoping to see McCoy make history.

Written a book apparently. Like a real one. What is it with jockies and novels? Dick Francis, John Francombe, now McCoy.

Odd really.

...it is odd, Roydo. As though they have to get into fiction.

Not really a challenge is it? Sitting on a horse and whacking it with a whip?

It's like when a girl goes " yeah I'm a make up artist"

What exactly artistic about it? Nothing.

That's what

He rides 8ft animals that run fast and jump big fences.

The most disciplined sportsman of all time IMO.

So basically he sits down and whips the horse while it runs fast?
