Steve Asmussen Talks Banner Saratoga on Writers’ Room - a podcast by TDN

Early in the Saratoga meeting, Steve Asmussen broke the all-time record of number of winners for a North American trainer. It was a remarkable achievement in a remarkable career, and comes at the age of just 55 years old.

It turns out he was just warming up. In a remarkable closing rush to the meeting, Asmussen won nine Grade I races in five days, including one a day in each of the last three days of the week when he sent out Echo Zulu to win the Spinaway, Gunite to win the Hopeful, and Max Player in The Jockey Club Gold Cup–two of which were sired by his own Gun Runner.
