The BC is not ever going back to SA without changes--you think they are going let their event risk a rainout, all for a surface which has proven a disaster for attracting top domestic talent?

The last two years were a horrible fluke which just about everybody regrets.

I've heard they're thinking on this is actually the opposite. They like having a synthetic surface for the BC because it attracts more of the top European horses. I guess they're more interested in top European talent than top domestic talent.

I personally don't like having a synthetic track for the BC.
