Max Player (c, 4, Honor Code–Fools in Love, by Not For Love) proved his last out 11-1 upset in the GII Suburban S. was for real with a dominating victory in Saturday's 'Win and You're In' GI Jockey Club Gold Cup at Saratoga.

The 7-2 chance was hustled from the stalls by Ricardo Santana, Jr. and forced the issue from an outside second through fractions of :24.05 and :48.70. He gained a narrow advantage leaving the quarter pole and took off nicely down the stretch to win going away by five lengths.

Last year's Jockey Club Gold Cup winner Happy Saver (Super Saver) was second. The pacesetting favorite Forza Di Oro (Speightstown) was third.

The final time for 1 1/4 miles was 2:02.49.

Sales history: $150,000 RNA yrl '18 KEESEP.

Lifetime Record: 11-4-1-2.
