 Crusader's five-year-old campaign was a disappointment as he failed to win in seven starts.Crusader began his stud career at Colonel Phil T. Chinn's Himyar Stud in 1929, but returned to Riddle's own Faraway Farm stud to stand at a fee of $1,500 when Chinn was declared bankrupt a year later.He was not a great success as a stallion, attracting a disappointingly small number of mares and siring only six stakes winners.
