Which racetrack do you prefer to host the Breeders' Cup (2015-2030)?

[Dave in TJ Mex]

Imagine.
The BC at Hawthorne.

*shudder*

Could it be worse than the BC at Monmouth seven years ago?

[serenassong]

Wait a minute.  You guys are confusing this again.

I thought we had settled on three criteria for the Breeders' Cup:

1. Has a main course.
2. Has a turf course.
3. Is near a White Castle.

To my knowledge, that pretty much narrows it down to Hawthorne and Aqueduct.   


(Note to mchorseracecall...that yellow thing up there means it's a joke.)

No, Victor, the three criteria we want for the Breeders' Cup are:

I. It should be on different racetracks that have both the main track (dirt or synthetic) and a turf course.
II. It should be on different racetracks beside the Santa Anita Autumn Meet from 2015 thorough 2019.
III. It should be on different racetracks along with the Santa Anita Autumn Meet from 2020 thorough 2030.

Victor, please give me you list of different racetracks that you prefer to host the Breeders' Cup from 2015 thorough 2030.

Yeah, Victor, stop talking about White Castles and answer the question.

How sketchy is the neighborhood where Monmouth is at?
Because Hawthorne is in a super sketch area.

You're right.  More danger of getting mugged at the BC at Hawthorne than at Monmouth, because no self-respecting mugger would have gone outside into the downpour at Monmouth on BC Day!

Hilarious!  Nice memory for movie lines you have!

[mchorseracecall]

Zen, Jjacks1, and everybody in this forum, the only time that the Breeders' Cup was held outside of the United States was back in 1996, when the event was held at Woodbine Racetrack in Canada. When I was at TBC, I asked Baroque is there a possibility that the Breeders' Cup Limited can host the Breeders' Cup World Championships outside of the United States for the second time in the future, and he said yes. So,what do you think, is there a possibility that the BC Limited can host the Breeders' Cup World Championships outside of the United States, for the second time in the future? If so, why? If not, why not?

First of all, David, cut me some slack here.  I am trying to answer the "fookin" question, but it's difficult because this has become the most convoluted discussion thread in the history of the World Wide Webs.      Each reply has so many replies in it, I don't have a clue of who said what. 

I think the question is: I'm supposed to name the racetrack I want to host the BC every year from 2015 through 2030.  I've got 2015 done - Yonkers Raceway.  As soon as I've got the rest, I'll get back to you.      

Sincerely,

Victor

Victor, a prestigious two-day thoroughbred horse racing event, on a racetrack used for standardbred harness Racing only, that's not going to happen. The last time that Yonkers Raceway has live horse racing was back in 1971, when it was formerly known as Empire City Racetrack. When Yonkers was formerly known as Empire City Racetrack, for live thoroughbred horse racing only, the legendary racehorse Seabiscuit won the 1936 Detroit's Governor's Handicap and the Scarsdale Handicap on this racetrack. The Breeders' Cup World Championships should be on a racetrack that only has live thoroughbred horse racing action, such as Churchill Downs, Belmont Park, Arlington, and the Santa Anita Autumn Meet. Having thoroughbred horse racing on a racetrack that only use for standardbred harness racing action would be very difficult and it will be very expensive. Besides, Yonkers Raceway doesn't have a turf course for thoroughbred horse racing, and it will cost up to millions of dollars to put a turf course for thoroughbred horse racing at that racetrack.

  FWIW, since I first suggested that going back to Woodbine was possible, I have learned that their grandstand has been "reconfigured" so that the 1st floor is now a casino. So, much like Gulfstream, Woodbine is no longer really suitable for a Breeders' Cup.

Damn!  Guess it's back to the drawing board.

But how do we know that "Vic in Chicago" isn't Vic Stauffer, the BHP track announcer?

Maybe Vic Stauffer is just trying to throw us off by having a second "handle," and trying to trick us by alleging he is actually in Chicago.

Vic in Chicago, maybe you should post a photo of Chicago to prove you are there and not in SoCal.

Jeez!  I can't believe that I'm actually being asked to prove that I'm not Vic Stauffer (who is a great racecaller!) and that I actually live in  Chicago.  OK - here is a photo of the Chicago skyline I myself took last spring.

Now...give it a rest, will 'ya?

Yup, I've always thought the palm trees in Chicago look great in the spring!

Since mcracehorsecall brought up White Castle, I'll add my 2 cents.

Krystal's are far superior to White Castle. White Castles have those pesky holes that look like they were shot full of holes with my grandfather's M1911.  Krystal's have a much better taste. Additionally White Castle implies racism.

First of all, I didn't bring up White Castle, Victor In Chicago is the one who brought up White Castle and second of all, I am not a racist, I friends with everybody  in all types of ethnicity background, I hate racial discrimination especially the racist comments made by Paula Deen and the kid from the round table discussion in Jimmy Kimmel Live which led to a protest from every Chinese Americans across the nation, which I think they were offensive. Horse Racing is a multicultural sport, and it should stay that way.
