I was highly skeptical of hosting the Breeders Crown at Scioto Downs in Columbus Ohio. I was very surprised at the event put on and the crowd. They came from Roundtown, Picktown, Grovetucky and Delaware and all other directions. Electric atmosphere all around. The racing was what everyone wanted, like JT said they were on go giving no holes and drivers had to make decisions quickly right or wrong. I don't think 2 turn tracks give you the excitement and really makes driver decisions so important. The lag on this night wasn't horrible if you like to stroll around between races and check out the ladies. The handle is irrelevant for this event it provided decent pools and you didn't have the late drops from CAWs. I now think that Scioto Downs should be in the conservation to host again down the road.
Turns are dumb, you only see podunk shithole little nothing tracks running 6f around.
Some tracks like Belmont are so huge one mile races only see one turn.
1 mile 2 turns is perfect, it should be the standard and Breeders Cup should be about peak performance.
You want 3 turn races at a mile circumference track then do 1 1/2 mile races or so distance this way we could see more Australian, New Zealand, European, global competition.
More money wagered.
America and Canada this shit is getting dull, think big, if you can.
