Where could you possibly have seen conditions that you consider "far worse" than that? If it wasn't the Breeders Cup there is a pretty good chance they would've cancelled racing altogether. To have standing water (puddles the size of small ponds)on the main track is one thing but on the turf course? I can't say I've ever seen anything like that in my 30 years of following the sport.
