My Story

The greatest personality in horse racing tells tales from the weighing room and beyond

---

After more than twenty years in racing, Frankie Dettori has seen it all. Arriving at Luton airport at the age of fourteen with no English and a tag around his neck like Paddington Bear, Frankie soon found fame and success in and out of the saddle. Joined by the great and the good of the racing world, here he regales us with stories from the weighing room and beyond, from jockey rivalries, disastrous bets, debauched parties and gambling addictions to moments of brilliance such as his magnificent 7 wins at Ascot, Frankie has lived a life full of tales just waiting to be told.
