let me re-word that question
have any races been removed from the card? any had trouble filling? any reduced in status after gaining a graded rating?
as for the bc and the races leading up to it, you see the same thing in the spring classics. every three year old race is a derby prep, and every race after the belmont is a prep for the bc. i don't agree with it...but then, you have people who say any race other than the tc races shouldn't be a grade one. can't have it both ways. if each race should stand on its own merits, you can't then say it should have a reduced standing.
the worst thing about the bc is the fact they named it the 'world championships'. it's not that at all.
