Frankie Dettori will miss the ride on hot favourite Emily Upjohn in the Coral-Eclipse Stakes after he lost an appeal against a nine day Royal Ascot ban on Thursday.
Dettori challenged both the stewards’ decision to find him guilty of careless riding on the King and Queen’s horse Saga and the penalty.
But after giving evidence to a three person BHA independent disciplinary panel hearing lasting nearly four hours, Dettori was told his appeal was refused and the original penalty would remain.
