Ryan Moore Wins Shoemaker Award

Ryan Moore, who guided three horses to Breeders' Cup victories Nov. 4-5 at Keeneland during the World Championships, won the 20th Bill Shoemaker Award as the outstanding jockey of the event.

The Shoemaker Award goes to the jockey who rides the most winners in the 14 Championship races with the tiebreaker being a 10-3-1 point system for second- through fourth-place finishes.

Moore, who won the Shoemaker Award in 2015, won Saturday's Maker's Mark Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf (G1T) on Tuesday , and Friday's Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (G1T) on Victoria Road , and the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G1T) on Meditate .

Moore picked up three runner-up finishes with Stone Age  in the Longines Breeders' Cup Turf (G1T), Emaraaty Ana  in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1T), and Dramatised  in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G1T).

Irad Ortiz Jr., winner of the past four Shoemaker Awards, also rode three winners but only had one runner-up finish to Moore's three.

Ortiz won the FanDuel Breeders' Cup Juvenile Presented by Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (G1) on Forte , the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (G1) on Goodnight Olive  and the Qatar Racing Breeders' Cup Sprint (G1) on Elite Power .
