If you've cracked it out already, it can't be submitted as a crossover -- the second TPG has no proof that it's the same card that the first TPG had graded. Also, when you submit for crossover, you can specify a minimum grade that you'll accept for the crossover -- if the second TPG doesn't feel it merits that grade then they won't crack it out of the first TPG's holder. (that's for PSA at least, I haven't looked into SGC policies for crossover.)

And as someone else mentioned, SGC doesn't use qualifiers -- they just knock down the overall grade, sometimes significantly.
