General Quarters followed his Bluegrass with a G1 win in the Woodford Reserve at CD on Derby Day 2010.

The real problem with the Graded Stakes, is the absurd amount of Grade 1's on the island known as California.
Unless you consider all the rags Zenyatta beat worth of Grade 1 placing's.

I agree. You would think many CA races will be in for downgrading in the next year or two.
