Dettori eyeing 3000th win in Britain

London

Saturday 6 August 2016, 7:20am

Jockey Frankie Dettori heads to Ascot needing two winners to reach 3000 in Britain.

Dettori came away from Newmarket with one winner on Friday (Saturday AEST) aboard Hollywood Road.

Dettori was in flying dismount mood afterwards and keeping his fingers crossed he hits the landmark at Ascot in the Shergar Cup on Saturday.

"Only two more to go, and it would be great if I could do it at Ascot," Dettori said.

"One of them is favourite tomorrow and I have another couple of good chances, so it's still possible.

"It's the place 20 years ago that I had my seven out of seven and it would be a good touch to do it there."
