Colored Saddleclothes
 
Why are the Breeders' Cup still using the same Purple clothes which have been worn since 1985, along with others.

Go to the Colors!

because colored cloths haven't worked elsewhere.

shouldn't you be concentrating on more important issues like figuering out an obscure way to qualify horses for the derby that no one can understand?

Totally agreed. Drives me nuts at Keeneland too. I guess they wanna separate themselves from the regular races, but it's just irritating trying to spot silks rather than saddlecloth colors. Very glad the Triple Crown doesn't do that bullshit.
