OAN THE RUBY!!! We will all miss screaming that!!! Fantastic career.

[@101mossie]

A great man, the greatest jockey by far, rode them all to sleep when it mattered, fell on Annie power and came back and won the champion hurdle on same horse, that’s what great champions do, glad he’s retired and safe, long live the King. 💪🏻

Took a dive on annie power to save the bookies millions you mean.

Don't forget you rode Douvan. He and Winx - horses of a life time. Love Annie Power too and Vroom Vroom Mag who made Nicky Henderson jealous lol.

Any jockey is only as good as the horses..the truth. Absolute legend. M

[@Nautilus1972]

The best I ever saw. I remember him getting half days off school in Rathcoole to go racing in Naas or Punchestown. Commanche Court in the Triumph... Papillion in the national. Great days great memories. Enjoy 'retirement' Rube, you're an absolute legend.

Good bye ruby Walsh!

[@keybuckley]

You'll be missed! Punters won't know which horse to back and bookies won't know which horses' odds should be slashed!

[@elbownesdam4024]

For a Irish person -he wasn’t a bad man 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 some of his Paddy Power adds were also hilarious...

[@rickylee4844]

Sad to see one of the main men gone from racing

[@JohnSmith-sw6uv]

Jeez, Ruby's daughter gemma is a beaut!
