In 2017-18, Sadler conditioned Accelerate, one of the best long-distance dirt horses in North America. The Lookin At Lucky horse upset champion Arrogate in the Grade 2 San Diego Handicap during summer 2017 and was even better in 2018, winning four Grade 1 stakes in California and then shipping to Churchill Downs and winning the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic on Nov. 3. Accelerate gave Sadler his first Breeders’ Cup victory in the Classic.
