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
Dettori has more than 3,300 career wins to his name, over a remarkable 35-year career, but none will feel sweeter nor more precious than a win in the Champion Stakes on Saturday 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
05pm) bacolod
So, five more rides at Ascot, five final attempts at glory on British soil bacolod

He has already achieved the perfect send-off, racing to victory atop Courage Mon Ami in the showpiece Gold Cup at Royal Ascot back in June bacolod
"Unbelievable! I thought it was a bridge too far from handicaps, but I had the perfect race," a jubilant Dettori said after claiming a ninth Gold Cup victory that day bacolod

Nine Gold Cups, what can you say? I’m speechless, to be honest bacolod
"That triumph, at the same course as Saturday’s races, returned to a tremendous reception for the cheekily natured Dettori who even gave the Queen a kiss at the presentation ceremony bacolod
It will last long in his memory and be the pinnacle of a year-long curtain call for the Italian who insists that his final races in Britain will be at Ascot this weekend bacolod

"Yet, he is saying farewell to British racing at a racecourse that already celebrates him, with a statue no less, on Saturday bacolod
The twinkle in his eye is on display one more time, perhaps there’ll be a flying dismount to mark the occasion or even a last Champions Day success for the finally departing champion bacolod

New Zealand coach Ian Foster has revealed that he feels a couple of subtle tweaks to his squad for Saturday’s Rugby World Cup final will be enough to match South Africa’s “bomb squad” bacolod
The Springboks have loaded up on bench forward might for the showpiece Paris decider, including seven pack replacements in their 23 bacolod
The seven/one bench split was a gambit first employed in South Africa’s strong warm-up win over New Zealand at Twickenham in August, with the replacement pack brought on together and immediately win a scrum penalty bacolod
But rather than matching their opponents and including extra forwards among their bench eight, the All Blacks have kept faith with a traditional five/three combination bacolod
Coach Foster has made a couple of personnel changes among those five replacement forwards, though, with veteran lock Sam Whitelock dropped to the bench and tighthead prop Nepo Laulala brought in at Fletcher Newell’s expense bacolod
All Blacks props Nepo Laulala, Tamaiti Williams and Tyrel Lomax will be key to the final (Getty Images)And Foster feels his side are fully equipped to defuse any potential bench impact bacolod
“It is certainly a response [to the Springboks’ bench],” Foster confirmed of his tweaks bacolod
“Not so much a response to the power, but more to the techniques we expect to have to deal with bacolod
“Nepo is a very strong scrummager and very experienced bacolod
He’s trained so well and has probably been disappointed that he didn’t play the last two bacolod
It is a great occasion for him bacolod
“He’s alongside Samisoni [Taukei’aho], with the likes of Sam Whitelock on the bench, we really believe and have got a lot of confidence in that group coming on bacolod
”The final should present a fascinating clash of styles, with Handre Pollard’s selection at fly half ahead of Manie Libbok another indicator of South Africa’s preference for a tighter game bacolod
That contrasts with the All Blacks’ ability to keep the ball alive and play wide, ambitious rugby bacolod
“That’s what I love about the game,” Foster said bacolod
“People play different ways and try different things bacolod
[South Africa] have got their way that they think suits their strength bacolod
“The [seven/one split] doesn’t really change anything in what we do bacolod
It doesn’t impact our game and the way we want to play it bacolod
Our strategy suits us, their strategy suits them bacolod
It makes it interesting on Saturday night bacolod
