Cheltenham 2006 /

McCOY IS THE FESTIVAL’S LEADING JOCKEY

Champion Tony McCoy, with 15 wins to date, is the most successful current jockey at The Festival. Since partnering Kibreet to success in the 1996 Grand Annual Chase, the record-breaking rider has gone on to land a further 14 successes, with his two greatest triumphs coming in 1997 through a rare double aboard Mr Mulligan in the totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup and Make A Stand in the Smurfit Champion Hurdle two days earlier.

He was also leading rider in both 1997 and 1998, although he surprisingly drew a blank at The Festival in 2005, having ridden a winner at every other Festival since 1996.

McCoy is closely followed by Mick FitzGerald with a dozen wins and Richard Johnson, who has 11 successes, while Barry Geraghty is next with nine wins to his name. The hugely competitive nature of The Festival is demonstrated by the fact that the Racing Post Leading Rider Award has been won by five different jockeys for each of the past five Festivals.

The previous winners of the Racing Post Leading Rider Award are listed below. (On some occasions the winner was decided on the number of placed horses partnered):

2005 Graham Lee (3)

Edward Gillespie, Cheltenham’s Managing Director, said: “The Festival brings together the best jump horses in Britain and Ireland, with raiders from further afield, and the intensity of the competition is shown by five different jockeys taking the Racing Post Leading Rider Award at the past five Festivals.

“The Festival is one of the few sporting arenas where leading professionals and leading amateurs compete side by side and a victory over the four days is sure to be the highlight of any jockey’s career.”

No jockey has ever ridden the winners of the Smurfit Champion Hurdle, Queen Mother Champion Chase, and totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup at the same Festival or the Smurfit Champion Hurdle, Ladbrokes World Hurdle and totesport Cheltenham Gold Cup at the same Festival. Therefore, no jockey has won all four championship races at the same Festival.
