They're very mediocre and according to your headline very poor? You've handicapped the card already and declared the racing poor and mediocre? Interesting...
Six of the events are a graded stake, 2 MSW's, a high price MDN CLM, and 2 ALW's (one OC) and that's 'poor'. You haven't looked at the fields for one second, and it obviously didn't occur to you to even look at the size of the fields, but it's fashionable to call the racing poor and mediocre, so why not? Take your money wherever you want, but your comment about this first of three big days of racing leading up to Met Mile, ahead of the Belmont meet's biggest day of racing, is just ignorant.
