I don't follow the Fair Grounds as much as some other tracks, but have often wondered whether they have a greater percentage of scratches because their entries are taken so much earlier than most other tracks.

Yes, I noticed. One of those Turf races has 14 entries and they don't seem to be AEs, but if a person likes P3s and 4s and maybe even 5s, it looks like those bets can be had with all stakes, I think.
