Fat Jockey Farewells (Flat)

Just woke up to this horrendous news. Puts trivial things in life well and truly into perspective.

RIP Pat:sorrow:
 
Terrible news about Pat Smullen . I had the pleasure of being in the ring with him before some races when he was ridding for the then Supreme Racing Club . RIP Pat . Gone to early .
 
If anybody is going to listen to anything at all tonight, please listen to the interview from AP McCoy on at the races tonight. Absolutely heart wrenching
 
How people see things differently. AP was very upset and Sky must have known that, at least to some extent. It was clearly a very personal grief and I don't think it should have been broadcast.

A day after Pinatubo, they'll be at it in no time :highly_amused:

Hopefully they have a long and enjoyable retirement :love-struck:

I still say now his juvenile win at the Breeders Cup was the most devastating performance I’ve ever seen on a (flat) racecourse, against the top 2yo’s that was seriously special.
