I don't think there's been a more impressive run this season from any horse. He was three wide on the pace the whole trip and, under those circumstances, was a sitting shot for any horse behind him to run over the top of him. He easily held PR to the line. TJ and Littorio are handicappers.
WH should clearly run odds-on and win the Turnbull. Here's the field:
