Okay guys. If the Breeders Cup could be restarted from scratch, what races would you include on the card?
I would have no 2-year-old races. Let them be "champions" starting in the fall of their three-year-old year, after they've proven themselves and have run for at least a year. Give the young turks something to shoot for, on the track and someday in the shed.

Good grief. Has anybody seen the DRF? Mike Welsch uses the term "marathon" twice in two headlines.
Please, somebody tell me this isn't a concious "editorial decision" from above to use these terms, made solely to support the Breeders Cup folks that think 1 1/2 miles is a "marathon"? Maybe they can change the name of the Belmont Stakes to the Belmont Marathon.

I was perusing Equidaily and came across this post from 2003. Reading it now it looks like it could've been written around the time this thread was started.
