To further Cruget's merits....he was 0 for 90 something at Gulfstream in 1994. Look it up.

Cruguet retired from racing in '89, in '94 we would of been talking about a 55yr old Cruguet. He won a G1 race in Canada at 50. The twilight of Cruguet riding career was less than stellar, we can all agree on that. But in his prime,60s-70s, he was a top jock in 2 different countries. Won all the major stakes in the states and even has a triple crown under his belt. There are jocks with far less credentials in the hall as we speak.
