Accelerate took the lead at the top of the stretch and held off Gunnevera to win the $6 million Breeders' Cup Classic by a length Saturday, strengthening his bid for Horse of the Year over Triple Crown winner Justify.

Game Winner's latest triumph included bumps along the way.

Accelerate gave trainer John Sadler his first Breeders' Cup win in 44 tries, and may have opened the door for Horse of the Year honors.
