Boca Grande won a terrible version of the Demoiselle and I am aware it was a Grade II. Christmas Kid won the Tropical Park Oaks on turf, but that wasn't a grade II. The Davona Dale was at a mile and she won that. The Ashland was 8.5fs and she was steps away from being passed and then most of all she got drowned in the Acorn at a mile. She's a nice filly...at a mile or less in my opinion.
Boca Grande has clearly been a shell of what most thought she'd be after the Demoiselle at the end of the year. To be honest with you I don't think she's a top tier 3YO filly and that will be seen as the year progresses.
I understand your argument was based on pedigree...I just don't see in actuality those two outrunning Rags at 10fs unless she just runs terribly.
