Bryan Cooper back in business and determined to grasp his second chance

In truth, there wasn’t a lot she could have done about it. Cooper’s expert ride took the decision out of her hands. He knows a little about star power too. If you mapped a graph of Cooper’s career, it would look like a row of shark’s teeth. That unforgettable Cheltenham in 2013 when he rode three winners as a 20-year-old. Appointed as Gigginstown’s main rider in January 2014. A grisly leg break at Cheltenham that March, which kept him out for almost nine months.

Even when Gigginstown pulled the plug, that reality took a while to intrude. He got a job as retained rider forin the UK, only for Potts to die suddenly a month later. He came back home and, on the face of it, he was now free to ride for whoever wanted him.

“I got it in my head that I wasn’t wanted by any of the top four trainers any more. I was very pig-headed and stubborn and I couldn’t see a way past that. I thought there was no way of getting back in with them. I dealt with things in the wrong way after the Gigginstown thing went belly-up.”

IrishTimes Hats off to him💪
