No,
I was very disappointed when the news was announced. Might seem strange given that he is the winning most jumps jockey, but he doesn't suit every horse.
Denman likes to be control of everything and everyone. McCoy is the same, which means that neither of them are getting their own way.
Denman HAS to be left to his own devices or he'll get pi$$ed off, and that's what happened today.
McCoy is a fantastic jockey, but he doesn't suit this horse. Not his fault, but connections should have never taken Sam Thomas off, who has done nothing wrong on Denman and has shown he gets on very well with him.
Everyone knows he can be a bit tricky and stubborn, and McCoy didn't stand for it, and ultimately the horse didn't like it.
