Thoughts From The Litter Box ---

I think it's an "Injustice" to run the Distaff on Friday!
What I would like to see is this:

Run the 4 BC Races from Friday on Saturday with the rest
For a total of 13 Races on BIG BC DAY
Let Friday be for the NON-BC Stakes Races

I'm sure there are reasons why the "Powers" that be divide it this way --
But for me, I would rather see ALL BC races on Saturday

Also: Many ppl work on Fridays and have to record the day
then watch it all unfold that night ---
Not as the excitement is happening in real time

Just one person's opinion

No matter how much merit your suggestion has, it does seem like a change that will ever come about.

I've never felt that Breeders' Cup Limited was as interested in "justice" as they are in $$$$$$. The present format gives them revenue (both on track attendance at very high prices and TV revenue) for two days rather than just one. I just don't see them as willing to give any of that up.
