SIXTY-FIVE years ago, a wise old owl, head lad, said to me, son, there are three things in life you will never see, “a fat jockey”, “a bookie wearing bicycle clips” and a “dead donkey”.
I have seen none of these. When I catch up with him at that Royal Ascot in the sky, I will tell him that I have added another to his list – “a politician that always tells the truth”.
