I love this idea.

You wouldn't if you paid your money to have your foals and stallions properly nominated and then someone who doesn't gets a free pass. Pretty soon more and more people would not nominate and just roll the dice that the horse will qualify with a WAYI race.
If they wanted to change the program to allow southern hemisphere horses to be supplemented at a reduced cost, thats a different story. But dont forget where the BC money comes from.
