Frankie Dettori: Derby better than ‘Magnificent Seven’

Frankie Dettori hailed his victory aboard Golden Horn in the Investec Derby at Epsom on Saturday as the “most thrilling moment” of his glittering career.

The 44-year old placed the win of the John Gosden-trained colt above both his inaugural Derby triumph with Authorized in 2007 and his ’Magnificent Seven’ when he went through the card at Ascot in 1996.

Dettori said: “I told my dad yesterday after the race that in my 28 years of riding that was my most thrilling moment, even more so than Ascot.
