    Wow the GP3 Peters Stakes is an 81+ race

    Is this a joke. A sign of the times maybe?

    So who is at fault? Owners exiting or Race Club failing to attract ?

    Horses exiting more so.

    I'm not sure anyone is at fault. But this is not a GP3 race. Maybe it's programming?

    I guess all the 'good' horses are already qualified this year? Which leads me to believe there is a need for an influx of Eastern stars flesh, because weak lead up races lead to weak Gp1s and eventual loss of status.

    have a look back a decade or 15 yrs ago and see what horses were in the PJP or whatever it was called then...

    no it won't.
    if that were the case then perth would have very very few stakes races.
    you forgot the magic wand they have, that just needs the odd wave and voila they are then 'true' stakes races.

    the fault is part handicapping department dumbing the joint down so far, and part isolation i guess. black type only matters to breeders anyway.
