He's flown off saddles, flown around the globe—and today, two-time Derby winner Frankie Dettori landed right here at Presque Isle Downs. The legendary jockey made his first-ever appearance at the track, where we caught up with him after an eighth-place finish aboard B.G Warrior.
"I'm always up for new things and new places. It's a nice track, very nice people. Unfortunately, I didn’t win—but I will come back," said Dettori.
Patrick Morell the simulcast called him “one of the most well-known international riders,” and says having a global icon like Dettori in Erie is a moment the track won’t forget.
