The odds were 77,000-1. Frankie Dettori beat them. On Saturday, UK-based jockey Frankie Dettori won six consecutive races at Santa Anita. His six wins were at odds of 9-4, 6-1, 12-1, 9-2, 10-1, and 10-3. The most significant win was the G2 Santa Anita Oaks, where he won riding the 10-1 longshot Nothing Like You.
The seventh slipped from his hands when Imagination finished second in the G1 Santa Anita Derby at 5-4 odds.
Nothing Like You trainer Bob Baffert said of Dettori:
"He's just a phenomenon. He is world-class and has brought his talent to every stage."
Dettorri’s feat was not a fluke, either. In 1996, he achieved a “ Magnificent Seven,” winning all seven races at Ascot with odds over 25,000-1.
Dettori has over 3,300 career wins. Forgoing retirement, he moved from the UK to the United States last year to continue racing.
