Racing has lost it's place in the imagination of the American population. I bet if one were to do a "Man in the Street" survey of awareness of the Super Bowl compared to the Breeder's Cup the ratio would be 100 to 1 - unless that street was located across the street from Saratoga or Santa Anita. Compare this to the days when the racing exploits of Seabisbuit helped a nation cope with the Great Depression.
I wonder if the same state of affairs exists in Europe or Asia ? Maybe the U.K. and Australia would be exceptions.
