From the outside, his recent vacillations may have suggested mere caprice: the fresh starts, first in the United States and then in Ireland; the enthusiastic talk again dissolving into disillusion and disappearance. It seemed as though the lightest of gusts could ease the pegs of his personality from their mooring, leaving his reputation flapping wildly whichever way the wind might blow. But the announcement of his retirement reproved any such condescension. Those who had presumed Fallon simply to be in denial about the erosion of his professional gifts, at 51, on Monday learned that he has instead been teetering over the abyss of what the Turf Club chief medical officer now diagnoses as "severe depression" for around three years.
