A little while ago I suggested on this forum that Tony McCoy was overrated. I was then taken aback at the abuse I suffered as a result of that suggestion. I trust after the effort on Old Wigmore, everyone who shouted at me will send a suitable apology.
He is truly a great n.h jock one of the very best horsemen imo and gave old wigmore a great ride till the last two fences when he allowed the hoss to lose momentum.....skoolboy error...and i had backed it too at early price of 7/2 so i was not pleased but please recognize the man and all his talents plus brave as a lion.......

Think he's a great jock. Much prefer backing him on one over hurdles than over fences but it doesn't change the fact that he is the best jock we have ever had IMO.

I had laid him and I moved onto the next race thinking my money was lost. Imagine my surprise when I checked my P and F. Shurely Shome mishtake. Sadly I had also laid him in the previous race too and had to punt wildly on Ruby Walsh to get up again

Agree with the first part, and admire how dedicated and professional he is, but wouldn't say one of the very best horsemen, not like Francome or Murphy. And if you haven't got natural ability you make up for it in other ways - like you work harder, and thats what McCoy does.
