Grade 1's just dont have that much meaning anymore.
It really just looks like the 3yr olds that competed earlier in the year were not very good. All of these horses won grade 1's win beyers around 100. Pretty sad.

If Harlem and Mambo improve this race the others won't be competitive. The others have proven repeatedly that they are just not very fast horses.
