Agreed that Mendelssohn is a question mark and he did press on turf. But even unadjusted six furlong and mile times put him near the front with a top two mile time and a 3 furlong closing time that is top four. Bolt is right behind him on both accounts and the rest have not shown better closing kicks. The only better closers appear to be Justify from a projected 10L back and My Boy Jack, a legit closer who could place at a nice price.

Its 16 and 11 for me.
