He only had to put away one horse, who we knew would cave at some point during the race, while nobody else was within striking distance that was not already front runner and we know front runners cannot close, or seldom do, into a fast pace. He simply waltzed after he got the perfect position.
Look for even more lightly raced horses who have talent to be the "in-thing" in the future. No reason to hurry a horse along anymore when foundation means so little. Simply trot out your best in the big preps, get enough points, and you are in.
