What the Nation is saying about Breeders' Cup Mulls Churchill Move ...

You know that after that horrible attendance at Santa Anita last year, the Breeders' Cup would love for any excuse to move to Churchill Downs, where a 75,000+ strong crowd is almost guaranteed. Too bad for BC, the picked absolutely the wrong years to both move to Los Angeles and jack up the prices!!! They just don't get that a lot of these horseplayers are out there firing and maybe lose 1k, 2k or more on the event. So you don't want to drop $1,500 on the plane ticket and hotel and $500 more on the tickets, and be out $2,000 before the betting starts!!!
