- ‘I do not intend to appoint a stable jockey at Clarehaven’
- Italian veteran had mixed Royal Ascot on Gosden horses
John Gosden and Frankie Dettori, who have enjoyed a highly successful partnership on the Flat since the spring of 2015, announced on Friday night they have agreed to “take a sabbatical” by mutual consent following “an amicable meeting” at the trainer’s Clarehaven stable in Newmarket.
The trainer will instead continue without an official No 1 rider. In a statement following Friday’s meeting, Gosden said: “Following speculation in the press, Frankie and I have amicably decided to take a sabbatical from the trainer/jockey relationship but we remain the closest of friends and colleagues.
