THREE times this year Gunite has finished second to winning machine Elite Power but Steve Asmussen’s sprinter finally got the better of the Juddmonte monster in the Grade 1 Forego Stakes at Saratoga.

Trained by Bill Mott, Elite Power came into the seven-furlong race having won his eight previous starts, and they included the Breeders’ Cup Sprint and the Riyadh Sprint in Saudi Arabia.
