AP McCoy 'crying all morning' over death of JT McNamara
AP McCoy has paid tribute to his fellow Irish jockey JT McNamara, who has died aged 41.
John Thomas McNamara, a father of three, was a leading amateur rider before being paralysed in a fall at Cheltenham in 2013.
AP McCoy, the 20-time champion jump jockey, told 蜜芽传媒 5 live: "He was a very tough man, very mentally tough, and has been for the last three-and-a-half years since his accident.
"I'd hate him to be looking down on me at this moment in time because I've done nothing but cry all morning."
