201 AnonymousI think changing the name of the Distaff is ludicrous, but lumping all the female races on one day is even worse. I don't know who is recommending these sorts of changes but the person(s) is/are working on ruining our championship day.KYUS
202 Beth KinnaneSomehow I missed the missed the memo that changes had been made. Don't know whose idea they were, but how ridiculous. All the Grade 1 and original races belong on BREEDERS' CUP DAY, not preview day. Period.
203 Karyn PirrelloThis is ridiculous. The Distaff is steeped in tradition. Keep it as it is and keep it running on Saturday where it belongs. If you are going to run races on Friday they should be the newer ones that have been added. If it is not broken, don't fix it. Leave the Distaff alone.KYUS

209 bob bertzThe Breeder's Cup Championship is a dirt and turf racing day. Not a synthetic championship day. Having it at Santa Anita for one year much less 2 years is a disgrace.WIUS
210 BellwetherEXPOSURE & a REAL (V8) PROMOTOR...Please Wake Up...Long Live The King & DIRT!!!
211 John LydenNot crazy about BC becoming 2 day event in first place but Distaff needs to be run just before Classic and/or Turf.MAUS
212 Louis PadolJust stop it already. Hey, try running dirt races on dirt while you're at it!!!!NVUS
213 tim swisherI WILL be boycotting the betting of the NEXT 2 Breeders Cups. WHY??? Giving this to Santa Anita who hasn't even put down the track they're using yet for 2 consecutive years is without question the most HORRIFIC decision ever made! CLUELESS PEOPLE making these decisons is sickening!MI
214 Michele HermanLast year's Friday races were overkill to the Breeders' Cup program, but workable as far as getting home to watch. This year is just silly. Too many divisions equals watered down fields. And segregating the female races to the entire Friday card is an atrocity. The original races should always be on Saturday with any additions on another day.VAUS

218 Bruce Greene"Ladies" is a term that should be replaced. It's 2008; it's time to attract not repulse new fans.ORUS

222 Cheryl StormIt's been claimed that this is being done for the fans. Oh really ? I don't recall us ever being asked. No articles, emails or anyway for to put our two cents worth in.IL

247 SteveCall it what you want, to me it is just a name. The real travesty of the Breeders cup is the fact they are running it on a synthetic track, that reason alone is enough to boycott the races once again.KYUS
