The class of stock that day compared to what is in tommorrow might as well be a different breed with very few exceptions.
The point is he's a total mediocrity, slop or no. That hopeless Temple Street almost won a G1 on Derby Day despite having a high Beyer of like 80 FGS. At least Pimlico is trying to card some meaningful races and not giving us two three-year-old turf allowances masquerading as "graded stakes". Besides the Derby and Woodford, the Derby card sucked quality-wise, and it's the same with the Preakness card (Preakness/Dixie).

The Belmont undercard routinely blows both of them out of the water anyway, so this is really a pointless argument.
