I can't vouch for Stardom Bound (although she was a champion) or Golden Doc A, but Rags To Riches and Balance (2007, 2006) went on to win important races.

I wonder in general how long the Graded Stakes Committee gives a race before messing with its rank. Wasn't the Clark changed (one up, one down) two years straight?
