Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 5 hours ago Journalists Share Posted 5 hours ago Globe-trotting jockey Frankie Dettori dislocated his shoulder when he was unseated from his mount at the gate prior to the start of Thursday's ninth race at Aqueduct. While not considered a serious injury, agent Ron Anderson was not sure how long Dettori will be sidelined. “He dislocated his shoulder and they put it back in,” Anderson said. “We're going to see [orthopedist] Steve O'Brien as quick as we can get him in. It's a day-to-day thing. He is sore. We will see.” Anderson said the news could have been worse. “It's the first time it happened to him. It doesn't seem like he'll need an operation, which is good,” said Anderson. “But as far as today, tomorrow, the next day, I have no idea. Not a clue.” Following the accident, Dettori was taken to Jamaica Hospital and was released Thursday night. The internationally-acclaimed rider was due to make his first appearance at Finger Lakes on Monday, Sept. 23. I appreciate all the messages. I'm doing OK! I dislocated my right shoulder – my team here in the hospital have put it back together.
