What's with the BC and Belmont? To me that's the perfect place for them.

NYRA doesn't want the BC, and the feeling is mutual.

Please stop. You should just post the score of a baseball game that just ended so that you have one accurate post you can be proud of.
It couldn't be at Belmont this year because of expected construction of the new Hockey arena. This is well documented.
The BC would be happy to be in NY under the right circumstances, and if you paid attention to what Dave O'Rourke, the new President and CEO, recently said, NYRA would like to bring it back soon as well.
No need to respond.....unless it's to post "Cubs 10 - Pirates 0"

Andy, this post is full of false statements so it is no wonder you don't want a response.
Belmont has not even BID on a Breeders' Cup in at least 10 years. LONG before the hockey arena was conceived. That is a FACT.
It is also a fact that the smallest crowds in BC history prior to 2017 all came at Belmont or Aqueduct. The BC has not expressed ANY distress at NYRA's failure to bid, because the BC's at New York tracks were failures.
The BC doesn't need or want New York, because NYRA is incapable of producing a big crowd and the weather is often lousy.
So yes, my statement is true- NYRA is just irrelevant to the BC. Your claim to the contrary is wishful thinking.

Oh, where to start? Well, there's always the beginning....
Nobody ever said we had bid on it over the last ten years. However, the new President and CEO did very recently say we were interested in the getting the BC as soon as 2022. Much more relevant ( even a lawyer should be able to see this ).
The rest is more irrelevant information...along with some unverifiable conjecture ( I doubt you're a BC board member ) and then some laughable BS. Failures? You're too funny.
Anyway, your record is intact.

Andy don't pay any attention to people that don't have any first hand knowledge of what NYRA wants to do. You are right there and I think that your knowledge is first hand.

How the hell is it relevant to a discussion of the site of the 2019 Breeders' Cup (what we are discussing here) what NYRA MIGHT seek to do, for the first time in 17 years, in 2022?
You are just shilling for your employer, Andy. You can't stand that it will be almost two decades since your tracks have had any relevance whatsoever to the BC conversation- and you disingenuously pretended that this was only due to a hockey arena that at most obstructed things for a couple of years.

1995 and 1990 and 1985 were all bad too.

The UFC moved a PPV event from Vegas to LA one week before it was scheduled. If UFC can uproot Vegas high rollers and do just fine, horse racing could move an event seven months in advance if it wanted to. Anyone who actually booked a flight for seven months in advance (haha) can easily reschedule.
