Frankie Dettori Specials: 4/1 For Retirement Rethink

  • 3/1 – To become a regular horse racing analyst on TV
  • 4/1 – To do a U-turn and ride again 4/1
  • 5/1 – To be given a knighthood in New Year’s Honours
  • 9/1 – To become a host of a TV show

SportsLens Head of News Lee Astley, said: Frankie Dettori will be hanging up his riding boots at the end of this season – or will he? After a terrific season that’s seen the popular Italian jockey surpass 80 Royal Ascot winners, plus win the 2000 Guineas, Epsom Oaks and a ninth Ascot Gold Cup – this is arguably one of the best campaigns Dettori has ever had.

“Therefore, despite being 52 years-old – is Dettori bowing out at the wrong time as he’s clearly still riding at the top of his game? Or with the old saying in mind – “it’s better to go out at the top” – is he right to call it a day? The Sportslens odds compilers seem to think there is a chance Frankie might have a retirement rethink @ 4/1.

“Frankie could also stay Down Under after his rumoured last ride in the Melbourne Cup on November 7th and head to the I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here jungle. At just 5/4 there is a strong possibility we could see Dettori teaming up with Ant and Dec for this year’s series, which normally airs towards the end of November.”

“Alternatively, with the main UK horse racing flat season coming to an end in November anyway – what about a Frankie retirement U-turn and I’m A Celebrity double @ 10/1?”
