That's is stupid! Absolutely you would think the P4 would end with the Ladies Classic, I can't believe it won't!

I know its not really a wagering menu issue but with 14 races couldnt the BC have some kind of national promotion where you try to pick all 14 winners for a sponsored $5 or 10 million dollar prize? Make it a one entry per person deal and insure it. Have it similar to the all star balloting and allow people to choose online. Would tie the 2 days for the common people and appeal to the lottery crowd. At the very least you would get alot of media attention and have something to promote to the masses.

I was hoping for a ladies classic/ classic double or a f&m turf/ turf double, something that would combine the two days, a little disappointing

Yeah it would have taken a lot of thought to have wagers that combine the two days.

Your idea makes too much sense. The BC people would never go for it
