Frankie Dettori will appear before a BHA disciplinary panel on Thursday to try to reduce what could be an incredibly costly spell on the sidelines.
The jockey, who is in his retirement year, faces missing a total of 17 days' racing if he has to serve two bans issued for breaches of the rules last week at Royal Ascot.
He was suspended for nine days (July 4-12) after being found guilty of careless riding on the King and Queen’s horse Saga in the Wolferton Stakes, as a result of which he is set to miss the ride on Emily Upjohn in the Coral-Eclipse Stakes.
