Frankie Dettori may have come away empty handed from the final day of his last ever Royal Ascot - but the affection felt for the rider was still palpable throughout the racecourse that has been the scene of so much success.

The Italian will bow out at the end of the year, meaning his tour of this season's fixtures is a farewell to the sport he has dominated for decades.
