When are the Breeder's Cup people going to address the polytrack issue? Will they run on it and call them dirt races?

The Cigar Mile is history as it has existed. The BC ruins another good race ( NYRA's fault I assume ).
You're right...I see it mid September at Belmont now. So, instead of being one of the last interesting and meaningful races of the year it gets reduced to YET another meaningless prep.
Who gave the BC the right to destroy all these races and render them close to useless? Maybe when NY gets slots they can make the Cigar Mile worth $3 Million and run it in direct competition with the BC Mile and 70.
