Mixer Stakes - Paint Proposal
Paint Stakes. This is the breed in second most need of help. Again, this is subject to Steward approval, but here is what I'm proposing to send her, broken out by division (again, for ease of reading, the other two divisions are replies to this post):
Sprint - currently there are 10 G1s, 2G2s and 4 G3s, for 9% graded stakes. If all of my proposed changes are accepted, this would increase to 15%.
2yos - currently 4 G1s (two W13W, two W16W), two G2s (W10S) and four G3s (two W5S and two W7W)
ADD
W8S G3 300yds, 2yo C&G, Opalesce Stakes
W8S G3 300yds, 2yo F, Abigail Williams Stakes
3yos - currently two G1s (W10W) and two G3s (W7W)
ADD
W2S G3 300yds, 3yo C&G, Sans Note Stakes

W13S G2 350yds, 3yo&up, C&G, Angel Raphael Stakes
W13S G2 350yds, 3yo&up, F&M, Night Into Day Stakes
4yo & up - currently two G1s (both W6W). There is also a little bit of an imbalance between listed filly and open races, so I'm adding one listed stakes as well
ADD:
W3S G3 300yds, 4yo&up, C&G, Three Buccaneers Stakes
W3S G3 300yds, 4yo&up, F&M, Three Sneaks Stakes

Re: Mixer Stakes - Paint Proposal
Mid - currently there are 8G1s, 4G2s and 6 G3s for 12% graded stakes. If all of my proposed stakes are accepted, this would increase to 16%, and a little higher if the two W14 stakes are upgraded to G3.
2yos - currently 4 G1s (two W11W and two W16W), two G2s (W10S), and two G3s (W9W). A little bit of an imbalance between colt and filly listed stakes, but otherwise, this group is in decent shape in terms of this go-round of proposals.
ADD
W6S Listed 400yds, 2yo C&G, Splash Works Stakes
3yos - currently two G3s (W9W), plus a slight imbalance between colt & filly listed stakes. Not including one G1 at player-owned track.

3yo & up - currently 4 G1s (two W11W, two W16W), two G2s (W7W) and two G3s (W9W). Not including two G2s at player owned tracks.

Route - currently there are 8G1s, 4G2s, and 4G3s for 11% graded stakes. If all of my proposed changes are accepted, this would increase to 17%.

Re: Mixer Stakes - Paint Proposal
The only problem I see is like in the route where the G2 and G3 for 2yo's are all week 12. Would it not be better to split them to different weeks?

If this can be implemented, one of the stakes should be named after Laura for all her hard work!!

I'll suggest moving the W12S G3 to W14 W.

This is an amazingly detailed schedule with race names and everything (was glad to see some of mine in there). Doing this for every division has to be taking you a BOATLOAD of time. Thank you so much for doing it.

Re: Mixer Stakes - Paint Proposal
Paints have been implemented, with an extra G1 per division because I'm in a friendly, Oprah-giving G1s kind of mood.

I was so excited I even made my own Orpah gif. Though sadly it won't share so you have to go to the link to see it (fail I know): https://imgflip.com/gif/5ftf7o
