If you compare it with other sports - It would be like saying "why should so much ride on one game?"

The Patriots had a much better overall season than the Giants last year - but the championship basically all boiled down to one game in Arizona.

I don't have a problem with the concept of the Breeders Cup at all - and the only people who seem to are the people who were around before the Breeders Cup started in '84.

The idea of having these great field of dirt horses compete over synthetic surfaces that are atleast as much like turf as they are dirt doesn't sit well with me.
