AP McCoy claimed the 4,000th victory of his career after winning on the second of two rides at Towcester on Thursday.

The 18-time champion reached the unprecedented milestone on Mountain Tunes in the 15:10 GMT race.

McCoy finished fifth on Church Field in the 14:10 GMT handicap hurdles.

His 3,999th win came at Chepstow on Wednesday after switching to Jonjo O'Neill's-trained Minella For Steak when original ride Mission Complete was declared a non-runner
What a truly wonderful achievement by the greatest jump jockey of all time.
