Dettori extends lead

FRANKIE DETTORI took advantage of the absence of Kieren Fallon to extend his lead in the jockeys’ championship to 14 with a winner at Leicester yesterday.

With his title rival missing six rides after suffering a bone-crunching fall at the track 24 hours earlier, Dettori was left with a clear run.

He got on the scoreboard as Mansfield Park made the most of a drop in class to land the ladbrokes.com Wreake Fillies’ Conditions Stakes.
