In 1995, Go for Gin suffered a small tear of a tendon sheath in his left foreleg while working out at Belmont Park.[1] This precipitated his retirement to stud. Go for Gin is the second oldest living Kentucky Derby winner next to Sea Hero. Racing historyGo for Gin started 19 races, winning five and running in the money 14 times. Though he challenged for the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing, he never won again, losing his last nine races. 1994 Kentucky DerbyThe 120th Kentucky Derby was held on May 7, 1994, over a sloppy track.
