It doesn't necessarily mean that was a good decision either.


The also rans in the '06 edition also include Mark of Success, Music School (who was highly rated, but unjustifiably) Sharp Attack and King's Field. While the class of horses isn't the only determining factor, I think this is enough to show that it shouldn't be graded either. There are lots of races throughout the country that should lose their graded status at well.
