The truth is that the big event days that were initiated by the advent of the Breeders Cup are what works. Thinking that the Jockey Club Gold Cup on it own is going to stand up simply on its merits or history is stupid. You are deluded if you think that the end of the BC would mean that those fall races would magically regain their luster or give definitive answers to the questions. Just as they do now, the top horses will avoid each other and hope to win the PR battle. The game has changed, deal with it.
If you cannot even acknowledge how far boxing has fallen, even from just the 70s, you are a proven fool and a waste of my time.
