Miguel Perez is 39 years old according to google.

Complete waste of talent I guess. Only made one half hearted attempt to make it at a major circuit .. went 2-for-20 in Southern Cal and left.

In 2004, he rode 592 races - 14% wins - $2.65 ROI - the vast majority of these numbers compiled in Northern California at Golden Gate and Bay Meadows.

Eventually left No. Cal for New Mexico.

Zia Park:

2009: 22-for-112 ($2.42 ROI)
2008: 36-for-176 ($2.55 ROI)
2007: 19-for-80 ($4.22 ROI)

Sunland Park: Profitable four of the five years he's ridden there

He moved his tack to Emerald Downs this year for some reason ...

At Emerald: 16-for-90 $3.43 ROI

Not counted in any of these stats - In 2007, he won 40 of 172 quarter horse races - and had a $2.64 ROI
