Ah man one of the sporting greats in any field. Brilliant horseman, brilliant jockey and one hell of a man! Loved the crowd reaction, one of them. Thank you ruby
Sad when someone so good has to call it a day. But it comes to everybody at some time, thanks Ruby for the joy you brought into so many peoples lives Enjoy your new life and future Mate.
Looking at his wins % its hard to argue that he was past his best, The last 7 years were the best of his 20 year career, but injuries took its toll on the number of rides from 2016 onwards and I dont think he wanted to be retired from another bad injury.
Can't believe he didn't go out by throwing himself off a horse jumping the last when 10l clear, like he's supposed to of done so many times.:yum: :sweat: Happy retirement Ruby.
