Fully updated with a new chapter on A.P.'s knighthood, the BBC
Sports Personality of the Year Lifetime Achievement award and his
new role as a TV pundit When Tony 'A.P.' McCoy announced his
retirement from racing, the shockwaves reverberated across the
world of sport. With more than 4,300 winners to his name, McCoy
seemed to be at the peak of his powers when he suddenly brought
down the curtain on an extraordinary career. But then A.P. McCoy
has always done things his way. In Winner: My Racing Life, AP
reflects upon his unparalleled career, taking the reader from his
humble beginnings in County Antrim to the emotional day at Sandown
when horse racing bade a tearful farewell to arguably its greatest
ever star. McCoy relates in forensic detail the process that led to
his decision to retire, recalls some of his greatest rides, lifts
the lid on his family life and looks ahead to a future no longer
driven by the constant pursuit of victory. The result is a
remarkable insight into the private and public life of a true
winner.
