Dettori, who also won the award in 2015, captured five of the world’s Top 100 Group or Grade 1 races in 2020, aboard Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) in the Gold Cup and Al Shaqab Goodwood Cup S.; Palace Pier (GB) (Kingman {GB}) in the St James’s Palace S. and Prix du Haras de Fresnay-le-Buffard Jacques Le Marois; and the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth QIPCO S. with Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}).

His total points for the year (from Dec. 1 2019-Nov. 30 2020) were 102. Ryan Moore, winner of the World’s Best Jockey award in 2014/16 was second with 98, while William Buick had 66 points and Irad Ortiz, Jr. finished fourth with 64.
