GENIUS. ICON. LEGEND.
Frankie Dettori is one of the world's greatest sportspeople, and a man whose talent has transcended the world of horse racing to transform him into a global superstar. Now aged 50, Frankie remains the world's most talented jockey and he continues to rack up winners in the biggest races and on the biggest stage.
In his fascinating autobiography, Frankie reveals how he has stayed at the top of the sport for so long, taking his place alongside the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Tiger Woods and Serena Williams as a sportsperson still in their prime at an age when others have long since retired or lost form. His is a story of remarkable horsemanship and flair combined with extreme resilience and will.
Leap of Faithwill reveal the inner-workings of a charismatic sporting genius: how he out-thinks and out-manoeuvres his opponents; his incredible race-craft and nous; and the secrets behind his mindset and mentality for winning the world's biggest races, including most famously, ‘The Magnificent Seven' at Ascot. Away from the track, Frankie also describes the hurdles he's had to overcome to reach the top – from surviving a deadly plane crash, to his devastating drug suspension from the sport he loves, and the sacrifices and singlemindedness required to become three-time champion jockey who has ridden over 500 Group race winners.
