The 3 year old sprint is a farce.

The international aspect to the King's Stand and Cork and Orrery was gone this year and they were desperate renewals.

Now they have added a 3rd to cater for the Hot Streaks of this world and dilute what is usually a fascinating Jersey Stakes.

Will help make stallions and maybe provide black type to fillies but I fail to see any positive from a racing point of view.

Along with upgrading races to G1's some races should be downgraded to compensate. There should be a set number of G1's in the calender to prevent diluting them all.
