Will go up to 20.

Yes, not many retirements, I don't like seeing horses go to the glue factory :(

RICH,

My worry is field sizes, there quite big already, with all the extra uploads can only see them getting bigger, Rich will you be keeping an eye on it? hold up horses have been having trouble with runs already, if fields hit maximum all the time i may have to change tactics when breeding and breed all horses so there closer to the pace which would be a big shame, i like my hold up horses but if there gonna struggle for a run because of field size then there would be no point breeding them that way.

What was the maximum runners for all the different types of races again?

Maidens
Handicaps
Group races

I have searched, i know you posted it but cant seem to find it.

Ok Thanks N/A,

20 runners is ok, Dont think you could get away with many more then that except maybe the handicap sprints they could probably go to 25-30. The big 1m handicaps would be carnage at that many runners thou but suppose they are that big really so could spring some surprises if they were run with lots of runners. Just trying to remember if thats what Rich posted. Hoped somone might have better memory then me :) .

I could be wrong and Rich could correct me but I thought that the 20 limit field rule only applied to G1's.

Personally I hope it applies to all races across the board.

I agree with Hackett, closers are disadvantaged in big fields!!!

So Rich can you confirm that the 20 field limit rule applies to all races?

Thanks
