Frankie forges eight clear

FRANKIE DETTORI pulled further clear in the race for the jockeys’ title with a 55-1 three-timer at Wolverhampton yesterday.

Defending champion Kieren Fallon was also in fine form at the Dunstall Park track, landing a double, but the gap between the pair has stretched to eight, with Dettori leading 174 to 166.

Fallon drew first blood when he just got Watchmyeyes home to win division one of the opening Holiday Inn Garden Court Maiden Auction Stakes after the juvenile hung across the track.
