PAUSE FOR THOUGHT
David Ashforth:
Twice voted journalist of the year
Twice voted journalist of the year
PICTURE: Dan Abraham
Racing Post Saturday August 10th 2013 p15
A life
less ordinary among Brighton belles and
bellies
"TREMENDOUS
news for older racefans. A study has shown that loneliness, a common affliction
among the elderly, is more damaging to your health than either smoking or
obesity. This means you can go racing, chatter away to fellow racegoers,
generally 'muck-in', smoke, eat and drink as much as you like, and still be
healthier than you were before. Excellent.
"So
it might be worth going along to Ascot today
to join the crowd for the Shergar Cup. You could squeeze some poor unfortunate
against the rails (jockeys do it all the time), and enflict a quiz on him/her.
For instance, how do you spell jockeys Yasunari Iwata and Joao Moreira? In
1847, which Brighton seafront hotel did
Charles Dickens stay in to finish writing Dombey and Son? What is going to win
the Redcentric Shergar Cup Stayers Handicap?
"The
answers, as you probably know are a) Yasunari Iwata and Joao Moreira. b) the
Holiday Inn, c) Mutual regard.
"If
you feel inclined to challenge answer b) , the Holiday Inn, there's one of
those round blue plaques on the hotel wall to prove it, although in 1847 it was the Bedford
Hotel. The plaque doesn't say whether Dickens, who went to the St Leger ten
years later, went to Brighton races. Dombey
didn't, nor did his son. No wonder they were so miserable.
"If
they'd gone on Thursday, they'd have been able to savour ladies' day. There
were some very nice dresses, many of them worn by women. One lady was wearing a leopardskin cast on her broken leg and one gentleman was wearing an enormous stomach, which he carried before him with a certain steady dignity,
gliding along like the SS Queen Elizabeth, parting the crowds on either side,
"It
wasn't bookmaker and television pundit Gary Wiltshire, even though Wiltshire
was betting from a pitch bearing the slogan "The Belly from the
Telly".
"Wiltshire
has taken drastic steps to loose weight and says he's lost eight stone and is
planning to lose seven more. It's good news for those of us who would much
rather that he was alive than dead. Well done, mate, it can't be easy, keep it
up.
"Speaking
of death, I gazed at the spot where I'd like my ashes to be spread - about a
yard past Brighton 's winning post, which is where a lot of the horses I've backed get their head in front.
"As
you'll know, if you've ever been brave enough to lock horns with a Brighton card, horses you expect to run well often don't.
So Maria Montez didn't win the first, promptly ruining the carefully considered
script constructed by Ian Carnaby and myself. In the placepot, we had three out
of ten in the seller, which was never likely to be enough (have you seen those Brighton sellers?) and wasn't. Still my day was always going to revolve
around Whinging Willie, a certainty in the final race, for lady amateur riders.
"I
warned bookmaker Adrian Pariser, betting as Sam Harris, that he should duck
it, but you just can't help some people.
"PARISER
drew my attention to a curious headline in the Daily Telegraph, reading 'French
nurse offers breasts for hire to gay parents' . Pariser said if it appeared in
my column he'd give £100 to charity. So now he's even worse off than he was
when Whinging Willie scrambled home at 5-4.
"At
Brighton , it's not just the racetrack that's
out of the ordinary, a thought that crossed my mind later on sitting in a pub
watching two men kiss each other while two women discussed changing trends in
lesbianism and the state of their eyelashes. One explained she had long
eyelashes, that needed cutting, while the other had short, stubby ones, that
didn't.
"None
of them seemed to have seen Beacon Lady, a real course specialist, win the
Brighton Challenge Cup. It was nice for
apprentice Daren Egan, who rode her well and does ride well, but I felt a bit
sorry for Nicole Nordblad, Beacon Lady's partner earlier in the season. Oh,
well, c'est la vie, as Gerald Mosse may
be saying when he dismounts from Mutual Regard this afternoon.
"It's
a competitive race and Mutual Regard has
been raised a challenging 8lb for his latest, cheekpieces-equipped success at
Ffos Las, but trainer Sir Mark Prescott's horses are reaching the winning post
first with impressive frequency at the moment and Mutual Regard might be up to the task. Or he
might not; that's the trouble.
"If
not, there's Bremner, who made the proverbial promising debut at York last month, waiting to put things right - if they
need putting right - in the maiden race at Ayr
this evening.
"That's
the theory but, if it's anything like Brighton
...
J Margaret Clarke Turfcall Comment. David ends with "That's the theory but, if it's anything
like Brighton ... "
British Horseracing is being run without Equus Zone Global Intelligence as is the Royal Western India Turf Club. Causing dreadful injustices to the horses, their owners, to the people who work with the horses every day, and to all punters worldwide.
Yes, yes, yes David there is masses more in practice, vital if any racehorse is to actually run in a race, leave alone win a race. British horseracing regulation government (BHA) don't count the practical side at all. That is why things have been left to get so dangerously wrong over the last 5 decades. We have false rules activated by false stewards.
The theory and the practice within the life and times of Rudolf Nureyev . The first thing is that Nureyev was throughout his career highly athletically fit. Top professional Global Group 1 race riders need to be as fit as the racehorses themselves. Both accurately in tune with each other. No one can drive a car with only two wheels on. People who can't drive call a cab. A car a machine.

A letter in today's Racing Post from James Toller Newmarket.
"Rules are not working: CAN anyone at the BHA explain to me what incentive jockeys have to keep their horses straight in a finish?
"We have now seen three Group 1 races recently in which horses have been badly hampered and in all cases the transgressor got off scot free (unless you count a short holiday).
"William Buick describes it as race-riding and under the current rules he is right. However, had these races taken place in other countries where the rules allow disqualification you have to assume he would have made more effort to straighten his two horses.
"There is no doubt these rules are not working; there are incidence similar to these nearly every day, a lot of which do not even warrant a stewards' inquiry. The rules were there to ensure safety and fairness, something they are not now achieving.
"On a slightly different note, the Appeal Board's decision to keep Sky Lantern's connections' deposit appears an act of spite. If they were not entitled to appeal, there is no point anyone else bothering."

Mark Prescott
Equus Zone Global Intelligence
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Mark Prescott, 3rd Baronet (born 1948) is a race horse trainer with over 1300 winners to his name.[1] An English baronet he inherited his knighthood from his father and obtained his first trainers license in 1970.[2]
On 1 September 2009 Prescott and television cook Clarissa Dickson-Wright received an absolute discharge from Scarborough Magistrates Court after pleading guilty to hare coursing whilst attending an event organized by Yorkshire Greyhound Field Trialling Club in March 2007.[5]
Sir Mark trains at the Newmarket yard, Heath House (which traces back to Tregonwell Frampton, England's first professional race horse trainer). He took over running the yard in 1970 on the retirement of Jack Waugh, to whom Sir Mark was assistant. Sir Mark is well known and hugely respected as a patient trainer, whose horses are given time and not rushed. Sir Mark is also a famously skilled 'placer' of horses, choosing horse's races very carefully. He formerly had a decades-long association with veteran jockey George Duffield - the pair shared probably the sport's longest and strongest jockey/trainer alliance. Since George Duffield's retirement, Sir Mark has largely used riders Seb Sanders, Stevie Donohoe and Rosie Jessop.

"Ahead of Saturday's Shergar Cup, legendary jockey
50 year old Gary Stevens talks to BBC Radio Berkshire about his return to the sport, his
love of racing and starring in the film Seabiscuit.
"The biggest thing for me when I go out to
ride a race is the fear of failure and fear of disappointing the trainer I'm riding
for or the owner," Stevens told BBC Radio Berkshire.
"The same applies when you are doing a scene
for a film. I did not want it to be a failure because I had failed, I wanted it
to be somebody else's fault.
"You get the same buzz when a director looks
at you and you've hit a scene perfectly and he doesn't have to say anything but
smile at you.
"It's the same feeling you get when you have
ridden a winner and you go back to the winner's enclosure and the trainer looks
at you and doesn't say anything, he just winks with a slight smile and you know
you've done your job."
