I'd vote for a F&M sprint, maybe I'm biased because Xtra Heat was one of my all time favorites but there's a very good group of F&M sprinters every year who are just a few steps behind the boys that also deserve to be called a BC Champion.

And to answer the person who said should more than 3 races be restricted to F&M's? I think the answer is a resounding Yes- the best comparison i can give in the human competitive world is Olympic skiing, there is an OCCASIONAL female skier as fast as the men but generally they're a few tenths of a second slower at the comparative level. The same thing applies in racing- at each class, the boys are 5-6 lengths faster on average than the fillies. It really isn't fair to the fairer sex to make up that physiologic differential.
