Présentation de l'éditeur
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.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Ruby Walsh comes from a fine National Hunt dynasty. He is the son of the former amateur champion jockey Ted Walsh, and came to prominence by winning the English Grand National at his first attempt, in 2000, on a horse trained by his father. Since then he's the only jockey to have won all four of the home Grand Nationals (in 2004-5 he won three in one season, only narrowly losing the Scottish National by a short head). He has ridden over 1400 winners to date, including 1000 Irish winners, and the Irish jump jockey's title on six occasions. He rides for two powerful stables: Willie Mulllins in Ireland and Paul Nicholls in England (for whom he's won the Cheltenham Gold Cup twice on Kauto Star, having ridden 24 winners at Cheltenham over the years). Walsh is a charming much-loved Irish sports personality, and here he opens up on life in the Walsh dynasty, and life under Paul Nicholls. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR004032300
