BOOKIES have slashed Frankie Dettori's odds of winning I'm A Celebrity after the 52-year-old jockey was confirmed in the full line-up.<\/p>\n

The world's most famous rider will join the likes of firebrand politician Nigel Farage, former boxer Tony Bellew and Masterchef star Grace Dent in the jungle.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But nervy bookies are already fearing Dettori being a big hit with the public.<\/p>\n

And Coral have halved his odds from to 5-1 from 10-1 to be crowned winner.<\/p>\n

His fellow sporting star and ex-cruiserweight champ Bellew is 12-1.<\/p>\n

Coral's David Stevens said: "Frankie Dettori is still doing his day job of riding big winners on the track as well as ever, but now it seems he's set for the I'm A Celeb line up as well.<\/p>\n

"Given his previous history of hitting the bookies, we're taking no chances with his odds of being crowned King of the Jungle."<\/p>\n

Dettori performed a stunning retirement U-turn just last month after originally saying he would hang up his whip at the end of the year.<\/p>\n

He travelled down to Australia earlier this week to take in the Melbourne Cup.<\/p>\n

The Italian dad-of-five will now stay there to compete in the ITV show after The Sun revealed the full line-up.<\/p>\n

Dettori will return to America later in the year, where he will race full-time.<\/p>\n

The jockey is no stranger to reality TV having competed in Celebrity Big Brother in 2013 after he had lost his job with racing powerhouse Godolphin following a failed drugs test.<\/p>\n

Dettori finished seventh among the housemates after being nominated for eviction three times and riding former footballer Neil 'Razor' Ruddock like a horse.<\/p>\n

The jockey also captained a side on Question of Sport from 2002 to 2004 and presented Top of the Pops.<\/p>\n
