This is not the end but it is an end for Frankie Dettori bacolod
The 52-year-old jockey is bowing out of British racing, riding his final races on the rather apt Champions Day at Ascot bacolod

He rides King of Steel in what will be his last race in front of a British crowd and goes up against strong opposition with last year’s winner Bay Bridge, French challenger Horizon Dore and Royal Ascot victor Mostahdaf all impressive competitors bacolod
This will not be an easy race to win and Dettori is unlikely to set off as the favourite – though nostalgia and a sense of occasion may play its part in the bacolod betting bacolod
Beforehand, Dettori has four other opportunities to sign off in style as he rides Trawlerman in the Long Distance Cup (1 bacolod
15pm), Kinross in the Champions Sprint (1 bacolod
50pm), Free Wind in the Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes (2 bacolod
25pm) and Chaldean in the Queen Elizabacolod beth Stakes (3 bacolod
