that was kind-of my point...there is no current basis or demand for a 2 YO turf championship here in the US and threfore those prep races are pretty unlikely to draw any top European truf runners...what we would get are the 3rd tier euros that can't win across the pond..and bumping these listed stakes up to graded status in order to maximize the prestige of the 2YO truf BC just seems silly to me...
