Guess the Courier Journal sent a message to a woman I work with and said BC is at Churchill in 2011. Pretty exciting that we get back to back dirt BC's! very good news.

Isn't it sad that we are celebrating the breeders cup being held on dirt?

No I didn't but it is like saying I am happy the Super bowl is going to held on a grass field. I like the bc at CD but it is a sad statement on the game when simply getting away from S.CA is cause for celebration.

It was an insane idea to host it there in the first place, I have no idea what they were thinking doing it two years in a row. My hope is that it'll be a long time until we see another BC on synthetic of any kind.

Having it at the same track two years in a row is a joke..........
