Desert Crown is all set for his highly-anticipated comeback in the Racehorse Lotto Brigadier Gerard Stakes at Sandown on Thursday evening.
Quickening conditions are the only concern for trainer Owen Burrows ahead of Hukum's intended appearance in the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot on Saturday.
The 13th race at Royal Ascot 2023 proved to be the charm for Frankie Dettori, as he put behind him his significant setbacks on the opening day and finally got a winner on the board at his last Royal meeting. Dettori seized control of the Queen’s Vase from the off aboard Gregory, the even-money favourite, and simply refused to yield as Saint George and Oisin Murphy ground their way to within a head of the leader in the straight.
ELDAR ELDAROV (4:20) can go the distance for Roger Varian in the Gold Cup on Day Three of Royal Ascot. The colt looked a top-class stayer in the making when chinning Zechariah in the Queen’s Vase here. The bay then didn’t handle dropping down to 1m 4f when fourth in Group 1 company at Longchamp. However, he relished returning to 1m 6f when hammering New London in the St Leger at Doncaster. The four-year-old was then beaten by fatigue rather than the two-mile trip when flopping back here. He set himself up nicely for this historic prize with a superb comeback second to Giavellotto at York. The bold-galloper should relish the demands of this 2m 4f marathon so he can join the staying elite.
Frankie Dettori will miss the ride on Coral-Eclipse favourite Emily Upjohn after being handed a nine-day careless riding ban by the stewards on a frustrating first day at Royal Ascot.
Frankie Dettori will replace Richard Kingscote on Desert Crown in the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot.
ARREST (1:30) can lay down the law for Team Gosden in another warm renewal of the Epsom Derby. Frankie Dettori can make his last ride in the Blue Riband a winning one on this scopey son of Frankel . The colt showed huge potential when third to Nostrum on debut over seven furlongs at Sandown. He soon confirmed that impression when chinning Desert Order upped a furlong at the same track. The three-year-old improved gain when demolishing Sea Of Roses in another hot novice at Ffos Las. He then just missed out on Group 1 glory when edged by Dubai Mile in the Criterium De Saint-Cloud. Those terrific efforts marked the Juddmonte raider out as a serious contender for this year’s Derby. He further boosted his credentials when slamming Adelaide River on his return in the Chester Vase. The bay looks a potential superstar so he can bring his rivals to book under his world-class jockey.
LONDON: Legendary jockey Frankie Dettori is hoping to continue this season’s glorious swan song in one of the world’s biggest races on Saturday when he saddles up on board Saudi Arabia-owned Arrest.
Frankie Dettori continued his farewell tour in victorious style with victory on Soul Sister in the Oaks, making up for last year when his strongly fancied mount slipped at the start before finishing a close second.
