Last October it was 60 and sunny here. While I agree it is a crapshoot, I wouldn't be surprised to see Arlington to get the BC within the coming years, the last couple years they have been setting up the schedule to try and go for it.

Cold is like 25 degrees, anything above that and things are fine.

I agree, and that is my point about having the Breeders Cup at Saratoga, when bringing up Chicago. the weather is just not a factor. The end of October begininng of Nov. the temp's are cooler sure, but everyone acts like its mid Feb. which it is not the case.

I lived in that region and I live in Boston, the weather should not be the reason not to have it in Saratoga that time of year
