You completely missed the point both GG and Ateam were making. Whether you think it's a s.hitty race or not, the LS Derby is a Grade III. Graded races are worth more money, they show up in sales catalogs, N2X allowance races on Derby day do not.
Whether the owners of Stay Put or any other horse that was in the Derby day opener simply wanted seats for the day is a different issue. However, the choice to pass on a race worth more money with a grade is a little surprising.
