i don't think so. seems every year horses ship in for the ark derby. but it did help the arkansas to have a graded prep at oaklawn. it's a really good series of races for three year olds, so at least it's possible to get graded earnings in more than one arky race.
as to whether the arkansas deserves to be a grade one, i just would argue the point that it shouldn't be the same level as the rebel.
