You could probably make a similiar case for Vineyard Haven. Two grade I wins, plus an awesome performance in the King's Bishop.

I dont think anybody considers the Fountin of Youth a sprint. But yes, that would be an impressive trifecta. QR's win in the FOY was awesome.

Vineyard Haven too.

I wonder how the eclipse voters see the distance of one mile? Is there any strict rule/guideline governing what a sprint is in the eyes of the voters?
