Most of the 3 year old races aren't really G1. Maybe it is time for a new system. What it would be,I have no idea.
The "system" would need to be more of the fastest horses running 10 times a year instead of 5 and not retiring early. Since none of that is going to happen, the grade doesn't matter except to breeders.
