You also forget that your top tier jockeys in NYRA are spent shuffling around Keeneland, Gulfstream, Churchill. And again they dont ride near as enough mounts as Dominguez to even contend jockey titles. What they do beat him in is definetely in Graded stakes win.
Also, you seem to empasize wins in Claiming, ALW as more important than anything else.
I am not going to argue that Dominguez is a good jockey or not but as far as being elite --Not yet my friend.

How can you win over 300 races on the NY circuit and not be elite? Because he didn't win a BC race? The guy has been on a major circuit for one year full time! How many mounts do you think he was going to accumulate?
I'd reserve judgment on whether Dominguez is "not elite" until he gets quite a few more legitimate mounts in big races.
