I'd love to see something like this. Old guys are the best.  |
This was in the mid '80s. I was doing a little research thanks to the google newspaper archive and equibase, and I found the 1985 chart for the race, which was won by then 11-year old Pierre La Mont, who wound up his career with 19 wins from 99 starts. The total field finished their careers with a combined 156 wins out of 938 starts and nine of the 10 starters each ran at least 80 times.
