I thought that was already announced a couple months ago? Or was it not "official" yet?

NYRA announced it a while back. The BC and CDI have been pretending that they hadn't already agreed on it since.

I wish they go back to the traditional 1 day BC, start with the sprint to the classic.

Too many races, too watered down, too hard to follow for me.

I am glad it will be at Churchill, dirt so people don't have to complain about that, party at 4th street live night before and after the BC, and its really easy to get tickets to it.

As soon as it was made official today, they started scrapping the rail and rolling the track.

This may be a new low, even for you. Asking whether a 7 year old will be pointed to a race more than two years from now?

that would only make sense to someone who starts talking about exacta wagering before races are even close to being drawn.

wet temperatures in Ky are still better than wet temps in the east, that time of year.
