Bring back championship racing series

Twenty years ago this week, a field of 12 older horses lined up for the 1991 Donn Handicap at Gulfstream Park. Then as now, it was the first Grade 1 race of the year for the nation’s top older horses, but in 1991 it was the start of something even bigger: It was the first leg of the inaugural Americ...Read More

Buckpasser · Horse racing groups mismanage money appropriations all the time. Look at the NYRA. They have mismanaged NY racing for years until Cuomo took over the Board. The problem with racing entities is their greed and inability to allow any one else to share in the profits. There are few if any in the industry that look objectively at racing and have any concept of future planning. Each track jockeys for position and races to push another track out of business. All to the detriment of horse racing as a whole and the fans in particular. · 180 days ago ·

mkstorm · I think they could revive something like the ACRS if they offered more substantial bonuses AND tied the point system to the Eclipse awards. In 1991, they offered $750K to the horse with the most points over nine races. When you compare that to the $1 million bonus offered by the Japanese for the Arc winner to race in the Japan Cup, the ACS bonus for the nine-race series was chump change. If you tie the Eclipse awards to the point system with extra points given for a Breeders Cup win, then you might see more good horses race agaisnt each other. However, I'm skeptical that the East Coast media would support this because they represent a majority of the Eclipse voters and this would take too much control away from them for deciding the Eclipse winners. · 180 days ago ·

Mike in SB · mkstorm you are absolutely right, racing needs a series of races leading to the Breeders Cup with the point leader winning the Eclipse Award. This would revitalize racing by strengthening the major races throught the year and create rivalries. · 180 days ago ·

CauseForConcern · The idea is great, but, if a point system led to an Eclipse award, then all buy-outs of judges would be taken out of the equation. Then, horses who lose, would win the award. We can't have that. · 180 days ago ·
