It's not like Jackson Bend has an Aldebaran-type style. He has some tactical speed.
With respect to 6f specialists dominating the race, Gulch, Smile, Precisionist, Dancing Spree, Cherokee Run, Artax, Orientate, Silver Train, and Midnight Lute would suggest a horse like Jackson Bend's style can get it done.
