Keep a close eye on Frankie's Dettori's Trousers at Lingfield tomorrow! That's my advice as the popular jockey makes what is likely to be his final appearance in Britain this year.

Trousers, trained by Andrew Reid, is my selection to do Dettori a good turn as he makes a last-ditch effort to achieve a century of winners in a season for the tenth time in his career before he heads off to ride abroad.

Dettori was three short of his ton before his five fancied mounts at Lingfield this afternoon.

If he is still short of the mark come tomorrow, Trousers, a winner at Lingfield last month, should make a bold bid to provide him with what could prove to be a crucial victory in the Bet Direct New Site Handicap (division two).

Salon Prive could be another winner for Dettori in the Bet Direct on Attheraces Interactive Maiden Stakes.

A creditable second to Gallery Breeze at Goodwood last month, Charles Cyzer's three-year-old has since finished a good third on this course.

Majhool makes plenty of appeal in the first division of the Bet Direct New Site Handicap.

Trained by Gary Moore, a regular scorer on this track, the four-year-old is a triple-winner at Lingfield.

North Yorkshire jockey Tony Culhane travels south to join forces with trainer Mick Channon, his greatest supporter these days. They can score with Fools Entire in the littlewoodscasino.com Selling Stakes.

Ofaraby, who has been in fine form, is my Nap selection in the Littlewoods Bet Direct Apprentice Handicap.

Dominic Fox has the mount on Michael Jarvis's three-year-old, a previous a winner on this course and successful at Wolverhampton last time out.

Over the sticks at Fakenham, Water Sports can oblige for the in-form Nigel Twiston-Davies in the Proton Jumbuck Amateur Riders' Handicap Hurdle. The gelding won recently and a 7lb penalty is unlikely to anchor him.
