As much as I enjoy going to Keeneland, I am not a fan of the Breeders' Cup going to venues where there is heavy reliance upon temporary seating. In the past (Arlington and Lone Star, in particular), most attendees were denied access to the main track building, even when pricey seats were purchased. And it's not like Monmouth worked out well (although BC had no control over the weather). A November date in Kentucky is likely to come with pretty chilly weather, and if large numbers are fans are required to be outside in the elements all day, the customer experience is likely to be greatly diminished.
But on a positive note, I'm sure that it will look great on TV.
