Tony McCoy equalled Martin Pipe's career tally of 4,191 winners today, as he rode 'On The Record' home first at Uttoxeter.
McCoy just about got the six-year-old, owned by his boss J P McManus, home by a neck, which received a huge cheer from the supporters.
McCoy said afterwards: "I made hard work of it. I was a bit conscious we went steady. Down the back I thought I'd better get him a bit closer because he's not a quick horse.
"Then he just started to wander about and have a look and was probably going to win over the last but decided to stop and it was only when a horse came by him that I got him going again in time thankfully. It's nice that he won.
"I've had a few steering jobs and I was hoping one would win and this horse was appropriately named. It's nice that it's one of Jonjo's and one of JP's.
"The thing with me and Mr Pipe is that it's just a personal thing. We've a lot of friends and there's been a lot of banter for a long time.
"I wouldn't be surprised if he went to Newmarket for a trainer's course. I hope I've driven him mad!"
