Questions about tracks and connections to Breeders Cup

[kgar311]

The Summer Bird thread got me thinking.

How much power does the Breeders Cup have over racetracks in saying what kind of stakes they can have during BC day?

I ask this because there are many a solid dirt horse not pointing to the BC due to synthetics and since alot of the stakes races in the fall are preps for the BC there will be plenty of BC caliber horses sitting in their stalls that day and ready to race.

Now why wouldn't NYRA and Churchill put their heads together and offer similar races, albeit not for the millions they go for in the BC, but maybe split up some races between the two tracks on conventional dirt and offer solid stakes money?

Each could hold one of the Juvenile race for the 2 yr olds for about 200k, one could hold the sprint for about 300k and then they can split the Distaff for 400k and the Classic for 500k.

You have to figure that handle is up those days and should compensate for the rise in purses.

Now my question is again what power does the BC have that they could stop this from happening?
