Autobiography of champion jockey and much-loved sports personality
Ruby Walsh. A much-loved sports personality throughout Ireland and
Great Britain, Ruby has had a career of outstanding success, which
includes having won all four of the home Grand Nationals. This new
edition brings his story right up-to-date to include all of the
races over the busy Christmas period as well as last year's
astonishing triumph against the odds. With many doubting that he
could be race-fit following a broken leg in November 2010, Ruby
competed at Cheltenham Festival in March 2011 and won five races,
finishing as the leading jockey. Ruby also talks openly about the
three key working relationships in his life - with Paul Nicholls,
Willie Mullins and his father, the legendary Ted Walsh - as well as
laying bare the relationship that exists between him and jockey
Tony McCoy - both great friends and professional rivals. With his
intimate knowledge of the two greatest horses of our time, he also
provides valuable insight into what it is like to ride Kauto Star
and Denman. Ruby charts the rise of an immensely talented and
unstoppable force in the world of sport.
