The Adios

A Grade 1 Stake, years ago, but I don't think so now. Doesn't get all the top colts. The Adioo Volo is a Grade 3

Hurt by the calendar.  Most of the top colts will be coming off Meadowlands Pace and aren’t interested in dropping back in the box.  With the state programs being so lucrative and dual eligibility a lot of the second tier grand circuit races have suffered.  Hell even the Metro didn’t attract all of the big names 3 year olds last year because the Ohio and Kentucky side stakes finals were all around the same time

Isn't the Metro pace for 2 year olds not three?

Metro is for 2yr olds.

With the end of heat racing, every event takes two weeks and often an extra week off so some of the events are not attractive.
