He was a superstar there for two decades, every bit as successful in France at that time as his compatriot Steve Cauthen was in Britain. Five times Cash was France’s champion jockey. He was an Arc winner, he won four French Derbys and every French Classic at least once, and more than 70 G1s worldwide. If there had been a TRC Global Rankings back then, he would have been a regular in the higher reaches of the world top ten. After I arrived in the States in 2014, Cash Asmussen had disappeared from the public eye.
