I was kinda hoping for a relay race in the BC.
Like, six Indian Charlie's against six AP Indys.
The race would start with one of each going against each other head to head, say maybe six furlongs. As each runner passes through a light beam of some sort, that would release the gate doors for his/her teammate to start the next leg. Say maybe nine furlongs.
That way if the winner of the first leg wins by 3 lengths, the team member of the next leg would get the appropriate head start.
I'd make the final leg something really short, say 3 furlongs, or something really long, like 15 furlongs.
It would revolutionize racing. You could also expand it to have a Team Pletcher vs Team Ass vs Team Dutrows, etc...
Think of the amazing possibilities!
Better yet, maybe have an owner/stable relay. Say team Godolphin/Darley vs Team Zayat! It could be the underachievers relay race, g1, purse 48 million!
