This could be the key. Calder and Delaware are a step down from a graded stakes at CD and allowances at GP. Turnarounds when facing lesser horses are not uncommon, especially with speedier types who can get discouraged and quit with tougher horses. Wish I could see the Bris race ratings to see how the races compared in quality.
