Alicia Murphy’s winner cops his signature style, finishing far ahead of the field. 

Major Price and Jacob Roberts made short work of the allowance optional claiming timber race at the Morven Park Steeplechase in Leesburg, Va., on Oct. 10, winning by more than 9 lengths.

But that margin was small compared to the 15-plus length lead they held for most of the race, effectively running the rest of the 11-horse field off their legs. Only William Wofford’s Algezir and Jeff Murphy were close at the end in second place.
