Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 2, 2021 Journalists Share Posted June 2, 2021 The GII Pennine Ridge S. at Belmont was downgraded to a Grade III event after coming off the turf last Saturday, according to a TOBA release. The American Graded Stakes Committee reviewed the result and determined that the original Grade II status would not be reinstated. It is the policy of the American Graded Stakes Committee that a race that is scheduled for the turf course, but is moved to the dirt track after the closing of nominations because the turf course is unsuitable for racing, is automatically downgraded one level for that running only. The Committee will, however, review the running of any race that is automatically downgraded as a result of this policy and may reinstate its former status.
