If you think there is prestige to the 20 year old P Classic I think you are mikstaken.

Isn't this a case of the better a pedigree the higher the stud fee, in the end the different Gr.1's may look fancier on a resume, but the pedigree is the major difference, ie.. an Unbridled winning the Pacific Classic is going to be more attractive to breeders than a Tiznow winning the JCGC. Skimming was just not attractive to breeders on any coast, he simply loved Del Mar.
