Racing:There was a massive sting in the tail for Frankie Dettori as he picked up a nine-day suspension for using his whip with excessive frequency on Rewilding in the Prince Of Wales' Stakes at Royal Ascot.
The stewards found the Italian hit the winner 24 times inside the final two furlongs and he will now be sidelined from June 29-July 7 - he misses the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown and the first day of the July meeting at Newmarket.
It is the second lengthy ban incurred by Dettori in the space of a few weeks after he was suspended for 10 days for not riding out to the line on Blue Bunting in the Oaks at Epsom, being narrowly denied third place as a result.
