Default Would the end of Breeders Cup be....

Would doing away with Breeders Cup day be a blessing in disguise?
Like Steve said earlier, it would certainly make the Belmont Fall Championship Meet and their signature races more meaningful. Also, we would potentially do away with all the top horses in the country skipping many of the best races during the year pointing to just one race. Sure, we would miss out on one day of the best racing on the planet. But, would that be made up more by our top horses potentially running more often in other races?

Not sure if the top horses would potentially run more often without the Breeders Cup. Probably not given the state of racing today....
