Limerick-born jockey headbutts horse

Limerick-born jockey Paul O'Neill has apologised for
head-butting his horse. The incident happened during a
race at Strafford on Sunday, after the 26-year-old
rider was unseated by City Affair at the start of the
race. The move, which many news reports have compared
to Zinedine Zidane's headbutt of an Italian player at
the World Cup Final, was witnessed by television
viewers. O'Neill said the horse had been unruly and
had intentionally unseated him, adding, "I've never
done anything like this before and I'm glad to say the
horse is okay after it". He also said, "I would like
to say to the public that I'm very sorry they had to
see such a thing".

At least he didn't stab him!
