This argument is not complete. It's all generalized BS. Find the specific horses that fit the scenarios you just described and maybe it will hold weight.

I listed 38 horses. They were either graded stakes winners (any grade) and/or grade 1 placed. I didn't list grade 2 or grade 3 placings. Of those 38, at least 27 fit the criteria more than once.

Bottom line: if those fields of horses in those years had been running at Oaklawn, Emerald Downs or Hawthorne, the race would be a Grade 3.
That must mean the Test would be a Grade 2?
