Frankie Dettori Beats Rival Jockeys for Coveted Ride
Famed jockey Frankie Dettori has secured the highly-coveted ride on Mostahdaf after outshining a star-studded list of competitors. This opportunity arose after Jim Crowley received a 20-day ban for his winning King George ride on Hukum.
Impressive Victories at Royal Ascot
Mostahdaf, a star horse, claimed an impressive victory at Royal Ascot. Despite being considered an underdog for the Prince Of Wales's Stakes, the horse dominated the competition with a skilled ride from Jim Crowley.
John and Thady Gosden Choose Dettori
With numerous options available, trainers John and Thady Gosden ultimately selected Frankie Dettori to partner Mostahdaf. The duo's history and winning formula play a significant role in this decision. However, they face a tough challenge from Aidan O'Brien's formidable Paddington.
Dettori Excited for the Opportunity
Dettori expressed his delight at being asked to ride Mostahdaf, calling it a "great ride to pick up." Despite the unfortunate circumstances for Jim Crowley, Dettori is looking forward to partnering with the impressive horse.
Tough Competition from Paddington and Desert Crown
Aidan O'Brien-trained Paddington, a recent winner at Glorious Goodwood, poses a significant threat to Mostahdaf. Rated as the 5-4 favorite by Coral, Paddington has been on a winning streak. Additionally, last year's Derby winner, Desert Crown, could also challenge Mostahdaf, although he has struggled since his Classic success.
