Look, I hear what your saying, and won't argue that these polytrack Grade 1 races are not likely to be won by true Grade 1 dirt horses, whatever the hell those are anymore, but the major reason for grading of races is field quality so as long as the fields are still strong the gradings will most likely remain.
I also agree with the argument that Keeneland Grade 1s on the dirt have produced MANY past winners unqualified to be Grade 1 winners due to the absurd bias.
I just think they should paint polytrack green.
