Bred by Alpha Delta Stables, the chestnut colt consigned by Lane's End was sold to Juddmonte for $900,000 at the Keeneland September Yearling Sale. Out of MGSW Broadway's Alibi (Vindication), his dam was runner-up in the GI Kentucky Oaks. Sold as a broodmare for $2.15 million, she hails from the family of champion 2-year-old filly Eliza (Mt. Livermore).

Elite Power's stakes debut came in the GII Vosburgh S. last year when he won by 5 3/4 lengths. After his win in the Breeders' Cup, his 2023 campaign started in Saudi Arabia where he annexed the GIII Riyadh Dirt Sprint. Back stateside for his next start, he won the GII True North S. and followed that up with a victory in the GI Vanderbilt H.

To date, the Juddmonte colorbearer has amassed earnings of $2,735,711.
