Comparisons may be odious but sometimes they are inevitable. Yesterday at Yarmouth the most scrutinised runner of the afternoon was the two-year-old debutant Noble Mission, simply because of his genes. And if the colt does eventually prove to be, like Sigerson Holmes, the younger smarter brother of the celebrity, then he will be some machine.

The fall from grace, constant allegations and sharp artistic decline that affected Michael Jackson's last two decades until his death in 2009 often overshadow how talented and groundbreaking he was before the self-aggrandising and his ascent to the throne of The King Of Pop. On Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad, the three multimillion-selling albums that defined him as a solo artist, he was superbly seconded by Quincy Jones, the producer extraordinaire. The other person who helped turn Jackson into a superstar was Frank DiLeo, his manager during five glory years between 1984 and 1989, and the closest the singer came to a father figure to banish the memory of his real-life father, Joe Jackson.
