Arkansas Derby Grade???

I just dont get it . We have to have a national org. that grades specific races to reflect there importance. I guess owners arent sharp enough to find the purses worth running for. Give the individual tracks the power to upgrade there races by simply offering the best purse money. The national org will always keep the powere where they want it and want let any of the tracks try to lure the top horses with purse money. What comes first the grading of a race or the grsded stakes horses. The national org will throw a bone to the lesser tracks but they will make sure the power tracks will maintain there dominance.
