A film about the life and career of AP McCoy has today gone into production. The 19 times Champion jockey is the subject of a new all-access feature documentary made in association with BBC Films and the Irish Film Board.
Currently filming at locations and racecourses across the UK and Ireland, Being AP (working title) has exclusive access to the Northern Irish jockey, his family and racing teams for the 2014-15 season. The 40 year-old has notched up more than 4,300 wins, 700 falls, 40 broken bones and a BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award in 2010 across a near 25-year racing career.
