I was not aware that those races were graded earnings race however everywhere I looked they said he is still on the Derby Trail and is the Godolphin rep.

I don't even know what's happening with him. He's not been moved to Godolphin yet because he's not on their site and now Godolphin bought a horse to run in the UAE Derby. I wouldn't count on seeing him anytime soon, anywhere. Too bad, too, because he ran a bang up race in his debut and I like to think the horse deserves another crack, but I'm not holding my breath.
