ON TVG Ken Rudolph actaully called Ready's Echo the easy winner because he was thrown off by the early finish line as well (it was fairly comical when Matt Carothers had to correct him).
FYI, all mile and a sixteenth races @ KEE are run with that short finish (so they have a little bit of a runup to the first turn.)

Note the 2nd place finisher of that race came back to win the 3YO graded turf stake on Friday @ CD (Tizdejavu) at 21-1.

I wouldn't worry about that horse winning.

He couldn't even get close to Smooth Air.

How about a Jazil-esque win in the Belmont? He might be the only one still going at the end of it.

Denis of Cork seems a likely Jazil candidate. I don't think Tomcito is fast enough to be Jazil, even in this slow crop.
