Of course there are too many graded stakes. Happened to have TOBA's Reynolds Bell on the TV show today, and discussed where the AGSC committee believes the stakes schedule can be improved/streamlined. There is a notion to try combining or alternating certain stakes in geographic proximity that have identical or similar conditions and are run around the same time of year. The breeders want stakes intact to create sires. There's not much mystery as to why the stakes situation is the way it is.
As for P3's, my own budget for them is typically $12-$24, as I'm generally playing 1x3x4's, 1x4x5's, 2x3x4's etc.. You can get a blueprint for ones to build off the P4 suggestions, but generally the top 2 tabs are a good starting point, and you can then add horses you like to the play.
