Bob Baffert’s undefeated 2-year-old colt Game Winner was named the Champion 2-year-old Male at Thursday night’s Eclipse Award Ceremony at Gulfstream Park.
Game Winner is Baffert’s fifth 2-year-old male champion, joining Vindication (2002), Midshipman (2008), Lookin At Lucky (2009), and American Pharoah (2014).
Game Winner capped off his perfect 4-for-4 season with a 2 1/4-length score in the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1). The Gary and Mary West trainee also collected wins in the American Pharoah S. (G1) and Del Mar Futurity (G1) after his maiden win in mid-August at Del Mar.
Currently training for his 2019 debut at Santa Anita Park, Game Winner earned $1,496,000 last year.
