Frankie Dettori cleared to race by France Galop

Dettori given all-clear to race

Governing body France Galop have given Frankie Dettori the green light to race once again following his drugs ban.

The Italian jockey was hit with a six-month suspension after he was tested positive for a substance, which the rider later revealed was cocaine.

Dettori's agent Herve Naggar is thought to have informed the Racing Post that the three-time Champion jockey is permitted to compete.

The 42-year-old is not expected to ride at this weekend's Derby at Epsom, despite being eligible for the event.
