Both the Belmont and SA Grade 1's should have major BC implications and be great races in their own rights. I love the notion of having 5 and 5. The only difficulty in using tracks that are three time zones apart is that there is no way of learning the SA scratches by the first post at Belmont. While that is not a huge issue, I kind of like being able to alter my picks of, say, the pace projection has been altered by a key scratch.

I would offer a possible solution for our small group, even though it might be a bit flaky. What would be the reaction to having two separate threads for posts, or two separate posts on the same thread? The Belmont races would use one thread and have a deadline of first post for the first Belmont race. The SA races would use a separate thread (or a separate post on the same thread) and have as their deadline the post time for the first SA race.
