Also look at how the BC has been handled the last few years. They are trying to appeal to a select few rich and famous celebs and they have no regard for the typical fan. Their decisions really make no sense at all.

The CHRB decision to mandate synthetics? Don't get me started.

CD management just a year or so ago saying they don't want to host the BC, due to some made up nonsense? Now they want it?

The constant bickering with signal feeds?

Stronachs dismantling of GP?

It's really like they are all in a race with each other to see who can destroy themselves the quickest.

Maybe the Breeders Cup has some sort of secret race. It's restricted to racing management types and the first ones to destroy themselves are the winners. Purse, $100 mil.

Though, come to think of it, racings approach to running their businesses is pretty consistent with the normal way of doing things lately across the board in big companies these days.
