Frankie Dettori has likened Saturday's Ascot farewell to Harry Kane leaving Tottenham as he prepares to leave British racing behind for a move to the USA.
The legendary Italian had been expected to retire at the end of this year but announced last week those plans had been shelved and he would head Stateside to ride as a full-time jockey for what could be 'three months or three years'. This weekend's QIPCO British Champions Day, all live on Sky Sports Racing, gives Dettori another opportunity to wave goodbye to his supporters and celebrate a remarkable career which has spanned over 30 years.
He said: 'If I did another year in England, then what am I achieving? I've won everything! 'I gave my word to everyone in Europe that I'd stop and I've already said three quarters of my goodbyes so I thought if I really want to ride then the one place I had a really good time was California. 'I did some time there as a kid, the weather is nice and it gives me an opportunity to ride a little bit more and get it out of my system. I feel like I've got a lot more to give.
