What possible good could this do for horse racing? It would dilute the sprint as I guess a few would likely try it, and further the idea of breeding horses to run abbreviated distances.
I'd rather see a 250k turf sprint stakes on the undercard or something. It would draw pretty much the same field that a one million dollar race would anyway. No way this should be a BC race.
I do question the use of the word
ersatz in the article, but other than that, it is great.
