Well then I guess the mile doesn't diminish the Classic.

What do you mean they couldn't have won it? What about Precisionist? What about Gulch? What about Dancing Spree? What about Smile?

I'm not talking about the horses that won the sprint (and you have no idea what race those winners would have opted for) I'm speaking of the recent years you cited in which multiple horses were listed that you claim should have run in the sprint.

It simply doesn't force them to run in the Classic. Blame the connections if you're looking for a scapegoat.
