Perfect Sting Remains Downgraded for 2021

Adam Coglianese

Last Saturday's Perfect Sting S., originally scheduled as a listed race, was downgraded after coming off the Belmont turf and the American Graded Stakes Committee decided that it will not be reinstated for its 2021 renewal. The race will be recorded as a non-listed black-type race.

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 and is automatically downgraded one level for that running only. The American Graded Stakes Committee will, however, reviews the running of any race that is automatically downgraded as a result of this policy and may reinstate its former status.
