Point: Breeders' Cup should move around * The Racing Biz

The Breeders’ Cup has been held at 10 different tracks from its inception through 2007. Since 2007, it has taken place in Kentucky and Southern California. Santa Anita has hosted seven times since 2007 and Churchill three times. Del Mar and Keeneland will host the Cup this year.

The Breeders' Cup has been held at 10 different tracks from its inception through 2007. Since 2007, it has taken place in Kentucky and Southern California. Mike Valiante argues that it's a missed opportunity for the sport. The Racing Biz thinks it should move around. There are only four racing events a year that have even the slightest possibility of reaching the consciousness of someone who's not a confirmed racing fan.

The Breeders' Cup took the best racing to venues all over the U.S. and Canada for the first two decades. Frank Vespe argues that a return to that would benefit the sport as a whole.

Mike Valiante argues that the Breeders' Cup should be based in Southern California.

The Breeders' Cup should be held in a variety of locations to strengthen existing markets and create new fans and bettors. Thoroughbred racing is already in an already challenging moment. There is no racing in New England. Many large metropolitan areas either don't have racing or have lower tier tracks that don’t generate much interest. The Breeder”s Cup board is going to do what it perceives to be best for Breedery“s.
