Doesn't Belmont have to be the frontrunner with Santa Anita the logical site for 2013 and beyond?

If we all hold hands and wish really hard, will Belmont get it?

How is Hawthorne not even an option?

You'll also need to do a lot of clapping too a la Peter Pan when they bring Tinkerbell back to life. That's actually how they plan to power Belmont during the Breeders' Cup. If everybody stops applauding, the racetrack goes dark.

You'll need to hold more than all your hands to stay warm if Belmont gets it as the facility is not heated and I froze my tail off the last time they hosted it! And I believe the dates for the races are later on the calender than that Oct date in 2001.

I just hope that it comes back to Woodbine one day. It only snows up here once in a while at that time of year.
I love the long shots!

Santa Anita getting '12 BC might be only way they get fall dates next year.

why not saratoga....would be cool to see everyone all bundled up. It would make for a great weekend up there....plenty of room for everyone
