Some personalities are known outside of the sport and often by nicknames or abbreviated names. Smith is known as "Big Money Mike" and Dettori is simply known as "Frankie".
I love both jockeys but I like mike a little bit more 🐎🏇
Living Legends!
Two of the best ever! Both so intelligent, one so humble, one so flamboyant. Great to see Mike giving Arrogate his credit, that horse was a true powerhouse, a monster, even though my favourite will always be Shared Belief 🙂 Dubai Millennium is easily the best horse Frankie rode, although its obvious he likes to stay focused on the present. And right now, Enable will forever be the horse he's most associated with. Her achievements are extraordinary. Surpassing both Winx and Zenyatta and every mare in living memory. If she wins the 3rd Arc, she'll be an immortal for centuries to come 🙂
Two worlds best jockeys ever!!!!!
Can't take to Smith at all, he is a sleeveen, too sweet to be nice.
Dettori is sound as a trout
If you've got a horse running anywhere in the world in a multi-million dollar G1 race, it's gets no more talented or experienced than having Frankie Dettori or Mike Smith in the saddle for you.
Frankie Dettori speaks English brilliantly.
Nice interview
Would “Foxy” be the irrepressible Richard Fox?
👊✌
Two of the best eve Ride
