    Bound to be terrible value with people backing it for the wrong reasons! I don't think the other jocks will step aside - it would be against the rules of racing, and AP would hate that anyway (Wilberdragon looks to have a better chance). I'll not be backing AP, but I'd love to see him win it.

    I'm not betting against a result I want to happen - I only do that with BFC!

    Congratulations Mr McCoy. You've sat on some really good athletic animals forced to run while carrying you. Bravo that man.

    Forced to run? Horses love to run. And jump. And having 10st on its back makes no difference to it at all. Believe me if a horse didn't want to do it, it wouldn't.

    The forced to run part wasn't intended to suggest cruelty. What I meant was that the horse runs a race not a person sat on its back. I feel there is far too much credit given to the rider and nowhere near enough given to the horse

    If horses could talk (Mr Ed being the exception) then the jockeys wouldn`t get a look in.
