This is part two:
Wow. The alleged fallout between Declan Queally and Nico de Boinville has erupted.
AP McCoy and Ruby Walsh weighed in on it on ITV Racing, and they were pretty unanimous in support for Queally.
McCoy said: “One person has much right to be there as someone else. Just because whoever you are doesn’t mean to say you should be in there. I don’t think Declan’s done much wrong. I don’t think one person is any more entitled to be there than another.”
Walsh said: “It’s all fun and games, isn’t it? That’s the same Nico de Boinville who rode Jonbon last year and put his head on the tape. Maybe he needs to look in the mirror, too. You need a rolling start. I’ve said it for a long time. If they walk in front of a tape and then it moves in front of the horses, you’d have none of this drama.”
This feels like it could rumble on for a while.
