BC shamed into making Whitney a "Win/In"

Unfortunately the last two years on the synthetic has ruined it because we don't see the best horses match up and even when they do (like with Curlin against the Euros) the result feels cheapened.

The BC isn't the problem, the problem is the rest of the season. Do away with voting for the Eclipse Awards and go to a point system in each division that uses your top six races each year. Give people an incentive to race their horses all year instead of just trying to get them to peak on BC Day knowing that a win there will net you an Eclipse.

I don't understand why many people don't get this. If it wasn't for the BC, we would get very few matchups of top horses. The horses would pretty much be kept in their regions and never meet up. There are so many spots on the schedule to race that they can be kept apart easily.

Hell, I live in Cali and since they've put down that junk at their tracks, I can't even argue this belief anymore.
