52 year old has been the champion jockey three times.
Legendary jockey Frankie Dettori has confirmed he'll retire from horse racing at the end of the 2023 season.
The Italian flat specialist, who's just turned 52, has been the champion jockey three times.
He is widely remembered for his Magnificent Seven achievement at Ascot in September 1996, where he went through the card, taking all seven races.
"Next year, 2023, will be my final professional year as a jockey. It's something I've been thinking about for a while," he told ITV Racing.
"My heart wants to carry on riding but I have to use my brain. I want to stop at the top. It has been difficult, but I think it's the right time."
The end of a beautiful chapter begins.
