In spite of the claim of races deserving graded status. Too many are simply handed out because of tradition and politics. My home track is LS and I feel the main reason they have a couple of gr3 races is because the grading group want to send them a bone because they are a very nice source of income from a simo stand point and not the racing quality. Granted a few very nice horses ship in for the gr3s but the overall quality is not there.
