Horseracing is usually likened to golf in the respect that is accorded, albeit on occasions rather begrudgingly, a rival’s performance, be they jockey or trainer. Not last Saturday, though, when, after the centrepiece of the day had been won by George Washington as smoothly as a presidential limo, an almighty contretemps ensued involving the riders of the horses which had finished sixth and last. Trainer Aidan O’Brien, scarcely a Bob Geldof in his garrulousness and a character normally so subdued you can barely discern he is talking at all, accused the jockey Frankie Dettori of “throwing the toys out of the pram like a spoilt child” and of “shouting and hurling abuse at me”..

Most of his books have been made into films, some two or three times.
When he died in 1939, he should have been worth tens of millions. Instead, he had squandered it all on increasingly lavish boats and exotic trips. By 1931, he owed $300,000 on yet another new boat he was planning.Nothing wrong with that Live big, spend big People expect that from a superstar Sadly, Grey was a curmudgeon.

Actress, professional snowboarder done dancing in double elimination.
It is a complaint first made last month, although the hearings ended in July, and it is an absurd distortion of what went on.Yes, there was tough questioning by the Lawrences’ lawyers, but that was their job. However, as Mr Geddis acknowledged to the inquiry, he was bound by the same professional standards as his colleagues on duty. “I should have the courage to see through the reforms that will no doubt come out of the inquiry,” he told the interviewer, who observed that “there’s a near missionary zeal about Sir Paul as he outlines the work he would like to do in 1999″.Other articles have reflected the arguments that Condon advances in private to rebut criticism of his officers. As an example of the supposedly shabby way that witnesses were treated at the inquiry, for instance, he cites the grilling of an off-duty constable, James Geddis, who stopped to help Stephen. He has staked his reputation, and his job, on the inquiry’s outcome, pledging to resign if he is personally criticised. In an interview last week, however, he made it clear that he is not prepared to fall on his truncheon.
On the day the article appeared, Mr Khan let it be known that the family had uncovered yet another potential scandal, namely that the detective in charge of the Lawrence murder squad, Superintendent Albert Patrick, was being investigated in relation to alleged corruption elsewhere in the force.One effect of this disclosure was to take the heat off the two lawyers – although Scotland Yard then produced a trump card, announcing at a hastily arranged press conference that John Grieve, the highly respected head of its racial crimes unit, would be taking over from Mr Patrick.Even the reviled suspects – Neil and Jamie Acourt, David Norris, Gary Dobson and Luke Knight – are jostling to have their say. The inquiry cannot hope to do justice to Neville and Doreen Lawrence – the parents of Stephen, the murdered black teenager – because it was hijacked by political activists hostile to the police and degenerated into a witch hunt intent on rooting out institutional racism.Thus a columnist in The Times declared that the inquiry “has too much of the whiff of Salem to leave the unbiased anything but uneasy”. The Daily Telegraph, meanwhile, denounced the inquiry’s “McCarthyite approach” and warned that “a separate agenda is being foisted on a largely unwitting public”.Is it an accident that the two newspapers are singing from the same hymn sheet? Within the past fortnight, Sir Paul Condon, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, has, at his own request, paid a visit to both The Times and The Daily Telegraph to brief editors and journalists about the Lawrence case.But the propaganda war is not being waged only at the Commissioner’s level. After months of confusion about how to respond to the criticisms heaped upon the Met, the main trade unions – the Police Federation and the Police Superintendents Association – have condemned the inquiry as partial and unfair.Nor are police the sole combatants in this battle for hearts and minds, as was illustrated by events following The Independent’s recent revelation that the Lawrences’ solicitor, Imran Khan, and barrister, Michael Mansfield, will be censured by the inquiry for their role in the private prosecution of the murder suspects. GIVEN THE dreadful failings exposed by the Stephen Lawrence inquiry, the Metropolitan Police might have been expected to be awaiting its findings with some humility. Instead, in an attempt to duck one of the worst roastings of its 170-year history, the Met has embarked on a last-minute propaganda offensive. The aim is to rubbish Sir William Macpherson’s report in advance of publication later this month, and the results so far are a credit to the force’s spin doctors.
Over recent days, a rash of articles has appeared in newspapers traditionally sympathetic to the police, and further pieces are in the pipeline.
The message is always the same. Which makes them soulmates for our own home-grown conservatives.Godfrey Hodgson is the author of `The World Turned Right Side Up’, a history of American conservatism since 1945. And it is one of the reasons why the Republicans are not waving but drowning in the US, even while the economy soars upward.The other, of course, is that Republican conservatives in the United States have made the mistake of listening only to those who share their ideology. Communism may be dead, and socialism discredited, but there was no Reagan revolution.
There is such a thing as society, Margaret, and there is more to political wisdom than getting government off the backs of the people.That is why Conservative governments have been chased from almost every country in western Europe, and why even in eastern Europe people have had second thoughts about the market. They flew back with a strategy, and it worked.So, at least, the matter is remembered in Tory circles.Then there is the legacy of McKinsey, the management consultants, where the Leader of the Opposition received his postgraduate education. Late in 1991, Shaun Woodward, now MP for Oxfordshire West, and then newly appointed as the party’s communications director, flew to Washington with two colleagues to learn the mystic skills of American political use of the media at the feet of the Republican pollster, Richard Wirthlin. What is far more likely is that the British Tories, with exquisite timing, have chosen to publicise their sisters-under-the-skin relationship with the Republicans at precisely the moment when the Grand Old Party, as it likes to call itself, is headed for its worst hiding since Herbert Hoover.Why would the Tory leadership want to do that? Well, for one thing the memory is yet green of how a trip to Washington saved the party’s bacon in 1992. One well-informed Washington political observer told me recently that he thinks the Republican Party could drop 40 seats in the House in 2000. The general prognosis is that they will lose control of the House and could lose the Senate as well.Now, a lot can happen in 21 months.
Prior to his final race, he had six rides, all on Landican Lane, and finished unplaced on each occasion.”It is very sad,” Lord Oaksey, the chairman of the Injured Jockeys’ Fund, said yesterday “He had seemed to be on the way back, so to speak. He wasn’t talking but he had communicated with his family and they were pretty hopeful, but he died at six o’clock on Sunday morning. It is obviously a terrible blow.”Radford is the first rider to die as the result of a fall on a British track since Richard Davis suffered fatal injuries at Southwell in 1996, and the first Flat jockey since Steve Wood, who was trampled after being unseated at Lingfield in 1994.Radford is not the oldest rider to have taken part in a horse race. Harry Beasley was 83 when he rode in his last race in 1935, while Victor Morley Lawson rode his first winner at Kempton in 1973 at the age of 67. Earlier this season, Pal Kallai, 67, contested a Group Three event at Baden-Baden, while Lester Piggott, now 65, is due to return to the saddle for the Emirates Airlines Legends race at Flemington Park, in Australia, a week on Saturday.However, in the aftermath of his serious fall, the combination of Radford’s age and relative inexperience led some to question whether he should have been riding in a competitive event. At the time, both John Maxse, the Jockey Club’s spokesman, and Dr Michael Turner, the Club’s chief medical officer, emphasised that Radford’s age had nothing to do with his injury, a subdural brain haemorrhage. “Injuries of this type can occur in all age groups, it could happen to a 20-year-old,” Dr Turner said.
“There is nothing that we are the least bit concerned about regarding his fitness to hold the licence and ride.”Their views were echoed by Buck Jones, the trainer of Landican Lane “Trevor’s a very fit man,” he said after the accident. “It was his ambition to ride on the racecourse, that’s why he bought this horse. Trevor came in three days a week to muck out and ride out before going to work They put him through the hoop when he got his licence. He was perfectly capable of doing a job, and he had several rides on that horse.”Radford’s death is the latest reminder that every jockey is one misplaced stride away from possible disaster. Riding horses at speed, particularly over fences, is inherently dangerous, but misfortune can still strike anywhere, and at any moment. Just three days ago, Paul Carberry, one of National Hunt’s finest jockeys, was thrown from his mount Harbour Pilot before they had even reached the first flight in a hurdle race at Fairyhouse. Yesterday it emerged that he will be out of action for a minimum of three months.The accident occurred on Carberry’s first day back in the saddle after a five-week layoff with ligament problems.
“He broke his leg below the knee,” Noel Meade, Harbour Pilot’s trainer, said yesterday, “and he has had an operation to insert a pin or a rod in. It is a very clean break and the operation has been a success. They didn’t say how long he will be out but it will be a minimum of three months. He’s having a rough time.”Meade said that he will use “the best rider available” during his stable-jockey’s absence, while Willie Mullins is also searching for a partner for Florida Pearl, who is due to return to action in a valuable race at Down Royal a week on Saturday.Laffit Pincay became the first jockey to win 9,000 races, when he partnered Chichim to victory at Santa Anita on Saturday. Pincay, 53, completed a five-timer at the meeting, becoming the first jockey in the track’s history to win five stakes races on the same day. Pincay became the world’s most successful jockey when he broke Bill Shoemaker’s record of 8,833 winners last December.. The king has lost his crown.

The king has lost his crown. After yesterday’s shock draw in the 13th game of the Braingames World Chess Championship at the Riverside Studios in West London, reigning champion Garry Kasparov, 37, almost certainly faces a sensational defeat at the hands of his former pupil and fellow Russian, Vladimir Kramnik, 12 years his junior.
Two games down with just three to play, and with only one more opportunity to use the advantageous white pieces, it will now take a miracle for Kasparov to retain his title.After only 14 moves of yesterday’s game, the audience was stunned to see Kasparov push a button on the table next to him, turning on a light above the small stage where play has gone on for the past three weeks. It signified he was offering a draw to his opponent, even though he appeared to be in a strong position and the game was in its early stages. As in many previous games, Kasparov had seemed ill-at-ease throughout, shaking his head and looking up to the ceiling as if in an agony of despair.At a brief press conference after the game he was asked bluntly what was wrong. “It is a long story and I will tell all when the match is over. But obviously there are reasons which prevented me from playing well,” he replied, adding that the schedule of four games a week had been difficult for him He would say nothing more. He looked a broken man, both physically and mentally.His short statement added fuel to speculation that some kind of personal problem has been weighing on Kasparov’s mind.

Its popularity can be judged by the fact that the amphitheatre is capable of seating 14,000.Performances then would have taken place throughout the day; now they begin near sunset when the heat of a Greek summer slackens. Since the theatre is an important archaeological monument, strict limits are placed on its use – only 16 performances take place each summer, and no food, drink and – the greatest hardship for the nicotine-loving Greeks – cigarettes can be brought in. Cushions were mercifully provided last Friday when the festival opened with a complete performance of Euripedes’ Oresteia, which began at nine o’clock and ran for three and a half hours without an interval (which would have been impractical for the logistical problems of rapidly moving 15,000 people out and in again. The expectant atmosphere in this open-air venue with its pine-scented air and the sound of cicadas was more akin to a football match or bullfight than, say, the Olivier Theatre on London’s South Bank). The production by the National Theatre of Greece with many of the country’s leading actors was directed by Yannis Kokkos.The story of the Oresteia, the only trilogy to survive from antiquity, deals with the bloody later episodes in the story of the house of Atreus, a royal family rivalling the house of Windsor in its dysfunctionality and the ruling house of Nepal in its violence. The first play Agamemnon deals with the victorious return of the leader of the Greeks from Troy to his home in Mycenae (whose ruins lie some 20 miles north-west of Epidauros). He is greeted by his wife Clytemnestra and taken into the palace, where he is slaughtered by her while in his bath, partly in revenge for his sacrifice of their daughter Iphigenia, 10 years before to gain favourable winds for the Greek expedition, partly as a result of her adulterous love for Aegisthus, and in part as an agent of the family curse.In the second play, The Libation Bearers, set a few years later Clytemnestra’s son Orestes arrives in Mycenae, is reunited with his sister Electra and kills his mother for her murder of his father.
The Furies, demons outraged at matricide, pursue Orestes from the city. In the final play, the Eumenides, Orestes attempts to purge his guilt at the shrine of the god Apollo at Delphi. Apollo sends him to Athens where he stands trial for his mother’s murder The Furies are the prosecution, Apollo the defence counsel. When the jury of Athenian citizens is tied in their verdict, the goddess Athena cast her vote for his acquital and persuades the Furies to settle in Athens and be worshipped as the “kind goddesses” of the play’s title. The cycle of retributive bloodshed is ended, supplanted by the rule of law and justice of the state.The trilogy was performed in modern Greek and having read the text and armed with a crib I had little difficulty in following the drama.
The most powerful performances were those of the three major women – Clytemnestra, Cassandra and Electra – and strongly contrasted in style. Lydia Koniordou as the murderous adulteress was a type of steely Lady Macbeth, a criminal of great willpower and grandeur. Olia Lazaridou as the captive Trojan pro-phetess Cassandra presented a woman wracked with suffering but nobly resigned in her certain knowledge of her fate. Electra as played by Amalia Moutousi performed in a contemporary style, an adoring daughter deranged by grief for her father.The dramatic concerns of Athenians 2,500 years ago were persuasively and lucidly presented through the meshing of production, performances and setting.
Ancient Greek drama undoubtedly gains from being seen in its proper arena – even though we are far from the original staging. Other plays here this summer include Aristophanes’ comedies, The Clouds and The Knights, Sophocles’ tragedy Antigone and Euripedes’ tragedies, Medea and The Trojan Women. (Next year the Epidauros season will open with Heinrich von Kleist’s Penthesilia directed by Peter Stein.)On the Sunday I saw a performance by the German choreographer Pina Bausch’s company Danztheater Wuppertal in the other magnificent theatre used by the Hellenic Festival: the Odeon of Herodes Atticus on the slopes of the Acropolis in Ath-ens. This was the gift to the city by a philhellenic Roman senator in the second century AD: smaller than Epidauros (it seats 5,000), but with a similar atmosphere.1980: A Piece by Pina Bausch was 20 years old but had been considerably reworked. Its three and a half hour duration had seemed daunting beforehand, but the evening was one of pure delight with none of the expected longeurs. The performance was an elaborate collage of dance, games, comic monologues, magic, illusions, repetition and reworkings. Constantly funny, often poignant, the evening’s themes seemed to be love and loss, the material assembled from the experiences of the 18 amazingly talented and highly individual members of Bausch’s troupe.

Anyway, the other day when we were staying with my brother-in-law in Buxton in Derbyshire, the film of Pearl Harbor came up in the conversation and I told them Ronnie Scott’s joke.”Nice to hear that one again,” said my sister-in-law, Jackie. “It was one of my father’s favourites.”"Did he go to Ronnie Scott’s often, then?” I asked.”Never in his life,” she said. “But then, he was telling that joke long before Ronnie Scott had a club.”I was stunned. I had always believed in a childlike, innocent sort of way that Ronnie Scott wrote his own material.
And now here was clear circumstantial evidence that he had borrowed it from the comedy pool. Did this mean that his other jokes were borrowed as well?For instance, I remember Ronnie Scott was introducing the members of his band one night, and when bass player Ron Mathewson came on stage in mismatched lumberjack check coat and trousers, Ronnie paused for a moment in horror and then said: “Somewhere in London tonight there is a Ford Consul with no seat covers…”Brilliant joke, I thought. But now I think: Was it his joke? Ronnie once announced that the next tune was one he had written, and he had given it a rather special title: “Through the Sleeping Country the Midnight Express Train Roared, A Madman at the Controls And a Broken Bridge Ahead…” pause.. “Blues”.Lovely timing, nice title I hope it was his. After all, only last month I wrote a piece in which I tried to trace the origin of the remark: “Give me the luxuries of life and I can do without the necessities”, and I concluded that it went back beyond Frank Lloyd Wright and Oscar Wilde and the usual suspects to the French writer Theophile Gautier, who had written in the 1830s: “Personally, I count myself among those for whom the superfluous is absolutely necessary…”But recently I was given a Dictionary of French Quotations by my son-in-law Paul ( funny how in-laws have been upsetting my fixed ideas recently), and I was riffling through the most quotable bits of Voltaire when I came across this “Le superflu, chose tr?n?ssaire.”. In other words, “That highly essential quality, the superfluous…”So it wasn’t Gautier who got there first after all! It was Voltaire, a hundred years earlier! And if it wasn’t Voltaire, it was someone before him!I think I’m beginning to see that it actually doesn’t matter in the slightest who got there first It really is just the way you tell them..

The Los Angeles Lakers had to rely on their unsung reserves to halt a late rally from the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night in the fourth game of the NBA play-off final.
Shaquille O’Neal was his usual marvellous self, but it was the veterans Ron Harper, Brian Shaw and Robert Horry and the youngster Tyronn Lue who got the job done.The 76ers scored 13 straight points, including the first 11 of the fourth quarter, to cut the Lakers’ lead to 77-70 before the four substitutes and O’Neal teamed up to secure a 100-86 victory. The win puts the Lakers 3-1 up in the series and one win away from retaining their championship They fifth game is tonight in Philadelphia. The final two games, if needed, are in Los Angeles next week.”We’re feeling good,” said Harper, who has become a seldom-used reserve after missing the final two months of the season with a knee injury. “The main thing is, we’ve got one win to go.”The Lakers’ first choice guard Kobe Bryant added: “Our bench gets motivated by people saying that we don’t have a bench They came in and did an excellent job for us.”.

The British coxless pair Cath Bishop and Katharine Grainger lifted themselves out of the frying pan and into the flair zone yesterday, as one of two British crews to book the express ticket straight to a final tomorrow.
Round two of this year’s FISA World Cup regatta series takes place in the heat and humidity of Seville, known with good reason as the frying pan of Spain. As spectators melted in the stands, Bishop and Grainger gave themselves a day off today by winning their heat. The Olympic champions Romania, the biggest threat on paper, had to settle for second and qualification via the rep?age as the British pair, rowing with length and power, dominated the field. All this despite an unsettling false start to the race as the “clogs” which hold the boats in place malfunctioned and affected steering.
But the culprits and those who assisted them can still be brought to justice Elan Steinberg will see to that.. A large part of it lies in vaults under the pavements of Zurich.” The Russians always believed that, just as they believed in the Odessa. The Allies claimed both were a fiction but Mr Steinberg says they had their reasons: “I’m shocked by the Safe Haven materials but not surprised. The Allies protected war criminals like Klaus Barbie after Hitler fell because of the war that followed, the Cold War. Given that, why wouldn’t they protect Nazi assets?”The report of the Volcker Joint Commission will be awaited with anxiety by all banks and companies named in Safe Haven files.
New York City will take its investments away from Switzerland. The country’s economy will be outcast, like South Africa under apartheid.”In the film The Odessa File, the famed Nazi hunter Simon Weisenthal says: “The SS smuggled out most of their gold and art treasures just before Germany collapsed. The WJC expects the commission, under the former chairman of the US Federal Reserve, Paul Volcker, to conduct a serious investigation of Swiss records for the first time.”The Senate has taken an interest. They will suspend Swiss banking licences in the US if we do not get satisfaction. A joint commission with the WJC to follow the Safe Haven paper trail began work just two weeks ago.
It has full police powers, and was guaranteed unfettered access. “Their aid to the enemy in the banking field was clearly beyond the obligations under which a neutral must continue trade with a belligerent, and was dictated by the profit motive of the Swiss banks.”No bank will comment on the Safe Haven documents, which does not surprise Mr Steinberg – the Swiss, he says, are still trying to hide assets stolen by Nazis. “The Swiss have given a tremendous amount of assistance to the enemy,” writes an official of the US Foreign Economic Administration in January 1945. These include a self-portrait by Van Gogh, along with works by Cezanne and Rembrandt. Many of these masterpieces are still missing, with trails that seem to lead straight to Swiss bank vaults.The Allied agents who collected information for Safe Haven can find nothing but contempt for Swiss bankers. There is no honour even among thieves.”Safe Haven also has documents which identify art treasures stolen by Hermann Goering. The Allies agreed to split other German assets held in Switzerland 50/50 with the Swiss government.”What did the Allies do with that $60m?” asks Mr Steinberg.
