Every Thanksgiving weekend I think about what it would be like to have the Breeders' Cup on Friday/Saturday. Yeah, it's kinda cold at times, but oh well. The benefits of it spacing out the fall races, eliminating the pinch on many racetracks and races, and giving everyone more flexibility in terms of where/when to run their horses is a good thing. It pinches the Euros a bit, but ultimately, seems like a good idea.

Leparoux committed to ride in Japan Friday and Saturday before Einstein was pointed for this.

Is it going to be wet THIS WEEKEND in New York, Kentucky, or SoCal? Yep. It's a bad idea. People bitch about the synthetic, but slop n' watery spinach turf aren't great either (tons of bias involved.)

Macho Again needs a wet track and/or a pace collapse to matter.

I love arguments like this. That's like saying Zenyatta is only a nose better than Anaaba's Creation. Sound right?
