This question brings me straight to the fundamental principle that handle, wagering, is the lifeblood of any and everything to do with this sport. As a player, 5 and 6 horse fields dont interest me at all. And while I may wager every so often at the aforementioned tracks, the short fields are a deterrant and may cause player to not bet the tracks at all even when they may have some good races carded. Bottom line, fuller fields generate more handle. They should do what they can to achieve that, and if that means shortening their racing dates then sobeit.
