Haynesfield went right to the lead and never looked back, winning the Jockey Club Gold Cup an incredible six lengths in a 7-1 upset.
Allowed to set a fairly slow pace, Haynesfield, under Ramon Dominguez, rattled off fractions of :24, :48, and 1:13 before coasting home under absolutely no urging whatsoever.
Heavy favorite Blame outrallied Fly Down to finish second, although he never threatened the winner. Hold Me Back finished fourth.
The final time was 2:02 2/5.
