You have to compete in the Olympics to win a medal (obviously)
YEAR end awards in Horse Racing represent a body of work for a YEAR.. its not Breeders Cup Champion of the Year... its the Horse of the Year.
Also, would they have had Olympic swimming being competed on pavement?

I understand your points... what I am saying is, its obvious the BC purses aren't attractive enough to bring out ALL the talent. Excuses are made for shipping, racing surfaces, weather, footing, etc..
So maybe a slight change to how the awards are given away is in order...?
