I had one of those Elitists, a filly. 1992, I think, which was the last year that stake was sponsored. Raced sick the day of the elims at Syracuse. If not sick, would have made the Final and probably been a well beaten third. I still miss that 12,000! She recovered and broke her maiden at Monticello a week later. Not much after that, but as an owner only in the biz about 4 years at the time, was a fun horse to jog on the back track at Monticello.
