More multi-sport analogies: it's like how in horse racing there are only five total 10 furlong Grade 1s on dirt for open company throughout the year and at least 2 of those (the Big Cap & Hollywood Gold Cup) should be downgraded to Grade 3. Don't have high hopes for the JCGC, either, although the calendar switch may keep it going at a high level.
Everything dumbed down to 9 furlongs presumably because modern horses "can't go the distance".
