The problem is the $$$$$. All that are in control will not give up the $$$$.Theb way I understand the grading process, is the grading of a race bassed on the quality of the entrants in prior years. What draws the top horses? The big money. Who has the big money? The big tracks. Even tho it would be nice to see the top horses run at mor diversified locations,Somjewhere wen have to reward the tracks that put the money out there for purses. If we are going to regulate where the races are to be run are we going to regulate how many million dollar horses the Shieks can buy? Liike it or not the process of grading Stakes races has some foundation.

My theory is the races should be graded at the end of the year. I know some will scream the owners would be all upset. But if a race is worth $500,000 and you find out its not a lock to be a Gr. 1, are you going to pass? Probably not. Money still talks.

Well, I'll certainly be anxiously waiting for that graded race to make its way to Charles Town or Penn National sometime soon once they start employing block's method of graded stakes redistribution. It will almost be like the Great Society or New Deal of tb racing!
