This is absolutely ridiculous.
I am going to play a four horse super box and hope it all works out.

There has got to be some type of rule change instituted that says graded stakes must have fields with at least six (though eight would be ideal) horses. Too many medicore horses are able to win grade II and grade III races because of the small field sizes. Once you have two horses engage in a pace battle up front, the lousiest of horses can come in and win. All this does is increase the animals stud fee when it retires when in all reality they haven't proven anything on the track.
