I really don't care for it.
So yes, my options are definetley limited. But, I think your going to see a reduction in field sizes in turf racing also. In fact, think it's already begun.
Just not as noticeable since fields are still bigger than on dirt. But, not by as much as they were. So watch out.

I always liked turf racing because of the finishes and it catered to class handicapping but I didn't really dig into it til the winter of 12-13. Assembled whatever there was out there written about it including pedigree. 5 years later and it was well worth the effort.
I think crop shrinkage is affecting what you say but I believe the crop size will balloon back up.
