I do much prefer the days of the 40ish horse barn on one circuit - my first favorite growing up was Woody Stephens. I would not mind seeing some kind of limitations on stalls put in - just don't know how you achieve the desired effect.
That said, based on what I've seen myself, Asmussen as super-trainer bothers me less than some others. I still wish he would say "no" once in a while (more than once in a while?) when someone asks "Will you train my horse?"
