We believe it will help draw new fans to our sport and our event -- and give us an opportunity to raise funds for worthy non-profit organizations.
this is a head scratcher. How in the world are they going to get new fans to the sport on a friday when the old fans aren't excited about using vacation day to attend or wager on a watered down event. I hear people say they hate the Breeder's Cup. I can't imagine what there is to hate about the original format. Maybe these people are now in charge of the event. Seriously it makes no sense. What next? Tom Petty in the infield? Fireworks? I don't have anything against Tom Petty or fireworks. I just don't see how that promotes the sport. People that show up for the other stuff aren't going to become fans. They are just going to ruin it for the people that are. Pink -race for the cure- saddle clothes.. I almost expect it.

the Breeders’ Cup management certainly respects your opinion
Is that so? Has anyone on the list been asked by the BC managment their opinion? If they respected our opinion don't you think they would ask for it at some point? Maybe I am just out of the loop.

I dont think its a terrible idea to have top quality racing on 2 days to make it more of a festival. I think Dubai is going to go that way as well with a 2 day World Cup event, but I think calling it the Ladies Classic is just stupid dumbing down of horse racing (along with world thoroughbred championships) and puts off many racing fans..
