I have always been against it, but the more I think about it, I would be all for it now. The best part for me personally, would actually be getting to watch/bet the rest of the undercard.
Who would be the ones to mandate such a change, the network covering the race?

Also I wonder if that would change the landscape of some prep races. You would think that Hollywood would/could market a 3 year old prep under the lights. Maybe Mountaineer would consider moving the WV Derby as well. You would think that some trainers would want to get their horses a race under the lights.

Who knows maybe networks will even devote air time to races since weekend programming seems to be a different animal all together.
