What a genius idea, let’s just create more group races so we can all pretend we’re watching top class racing every weekend. 
Of course we would just be watering down the sport even further, with more small fields, enabling owners and trainers to avoid the competition and gain cheap black type for their horse.
Fortunately, I don’t believe the Pattern Committee would contemplate such folly. If anything we need fewer pattern races.
Let’s get a grip please.
....and you've got to look a long way back for anything else.
