let's face it the grading sysem is screwed up and the influx of more big slots money races at non traditional venues will continue to skew the system even further. The Miesque being a grade 3 and the BC juvy filly turf being ungraded is stupid. I know about the criteria but some of that smae criteria leads the Arky Derby not to be a grade 1 also. According to the graded stakes committee Tapitsfly is not a graded winner but Jailot is. Obvious prep races like the Derby preps are the same grade as the target is. It is just tiresome to think about.
