You know, because if you lose the BC, they take away all your other victories from earlier in the year.
Of course, ending the campaign of a Grade 2 miler in a long-distance Grade 1 is perfectly logical. Would she even be in the BC had she not won the Spinster on the Polytrack?

Looking at her PPs, at least on the turf it looks like she's had no problem with a Mile&1/8, I just thought you could take that Spinster win and say "let's see how she does on the dirt as opposed to let's put her in a really tough spot on the grass".
Do they need to add a Filly and Mare Turf Mile next year lol?
