Meet the Candidates
Thoroughbred Daily News has asked Breeders’ Cup board candidates what they think is the biggest issue facing the Breeders’ Cup and have kindly allowed Patrick of Pulling Hair & Betting Horses to reprint their answers. Interesting stuff — promotion and growing the fan base are recurring themes, with Barry Weisbord making a good point about adding “elements of rational and meaningful structure, including schedule and standings, to differentiate our best and most marketable product,” and Chris Young talking up the potential of using technology to connect with fans.
