Obviously the Marathon is meaningless, and to me, the F&M Sprint is ridiculous. Many of the best Sprints came with fillies and mares. The Turf Sprint should be thought through. The Dirt Mile will finally get on dirt and run at a mile, so I guess it should be given a test... But, I'd run this 10 race Breeders' Cup card. 5 on the main and 5 on the lawn:

1. Turf Sprint (P4)
2. Juvenile Fillies
3. Juvenile Turf
4. Juvenile (P4)
5. F&M Turf (P6)
6. Sprint (P5)
7. Mile (P4)
8. Distaff
9. Turf
10. Classic
I don't like having a P4 start and end in the same race. If your opinion is wrong you get crushed
