For 19 times, AP McCoy won champion jump jockey. Now the news is that the champion racer is going to be retired by the end of this season. The news was revealed by the champion when he claimed his 200^th winner of the season in Betfair Prince Rush Chase at Newbury on Mr. Mole. On talking with Channel 4 Racing, AP McCoy said, “I want to go while I’m still enjoying racing and while I am still near the top. This is without a doubt the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make. I’ve been dreading this day.”

As a matter of fact, it was really difficult for AP McCoy for making the decision of retirement. He loves racing and he being the champion enjoys a lot while racing. Back in 2010, he was the only champion who won the first BBC Sports Personality of the Year title. Then, after this win on his 15^th attempt he finally won the title of Grand National for the very first time. AP McCoy said, “However, I know it’s the right time to end a career I’ve loved. Even when I’ve fallen and been injured, I’ve been desperate to get back and achieve my goals, achieve the dream I realized when I was a boy, but I’m now ready to retire. I want to finish my career as champion jockey, and I want to finish on a win. I don’t know when that will be exactly, but 20 championship titles is a nice even number”.

In regard to the retirement decision, the trainer Paul Nicholas, “He’s been such a legend but you can’t go on forever. He’s riding as well as he ever has so that’s probably the right time to go out. He’s been a great ambassador. Everyone will miss him, won’t they?”

Chanelle wife of AP McCoy said that he is fine with his decision of retirement and he made this decision 2 weeks back. However, sometimes he really gets sad. BBC sport horse racing correspondent Cornelius Lysaght said, “It was widely believed that AP McCoy would quit soon but the exact timing of the announcement came as a surprise. Since an autumnal break because of injury, the 19-times champion jump jockey – with a 20th title apparently in the bag – has been as imperious as ever. His retirement, to happen by the end of the jump season in April, will leave a vast chasm in British racing. He’s dominated the sport for 20 years.”
