That's about 7%. The evidence speaks for itself. There's been years where the race didn't merit Grade 2, let alone Grade 1.

I don't look for it to be downgraded since this years running was probably the deepest in years. At least this year there was a filly coming in w/a triple digit Beyer.
You need to stop arguing from weakness....and maybe even read the posts in this thread....as you have not analyzed the fields in any way.
