With these fine suggestions I wouldn't be surprised if Sumitas and Chuckles are named co-CEO of the Breeder's Cup by the end of the day.

I don't think we should end at workouts though...how about each horsey entered on the day's card run by themselves and then the stewards can determine the winner?

Default I have the answer



Get about 15 of these and line them up at the finish line. I hear they can give the distance, calories burned, and heart rate. Have the first 15 go, then the next, then the next etc. There, problem solved

Bravo can televise these pageants, and instead of prize money the horseys compete for carrots, peppermints and Gift Certificates to Applebee's (for the owners).
Now you're thinking!

The Derby can be the annual BJI Contest.
