Preakness victory helps Barber seal another award

War Of Will winning the Preakness at Pimlico on Saturday, ridden by Tyler Gaffalione (+3 pts, #56 from #60) and trained by Mark Casse (+4pts, #23 from #25). Sire is War Front (+4pts, #17 from #19)

A classic victory would always put connections in contention for one of the TRC Performers of the Week awards, and when there are other successes to back that up their claims become increasingly hard to resist.
