Marketing wise, IMO, it’s better to spread them out. Have first weekend April major preps, first weekend May Derby.
If theywant to take on Indy 500, Preakness Memorial Day weekend. If not, first weekend June. 4th of July weekend Belmont.
Something like that. Then link them as a playoff points system equating to champ 3 year old. Maybe work in some of the summer 3 yr old stakes.
Triple Crown is the sports biggest asset and would be better to get the “stars” to participate.
NBA playoffs are in the tank ratings wise. Fill the void.
