BREEDERS' CUP 2011: The Road to Louisville
Fifty-two days until the 2011 Breeders' Cup kicks off at Churchill Downs. With time growing shorter and shorter by the day, connections of Breeders' Cup contenders are preparing for their final prep races before heading to Louisville. With an eye on the races ahead of us, I've put together a file summarizing the major stakes action from now until mid-October, along with identifying races that are part of the Breeders' Cup Challenge series. Additionally, I've updated the Breeders' Cup Historical Payouts file with the results from 2010.

Damn, Matt...
you really do good work.
Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.
Thanks

There are two kinds of people in the world...
Spreadsheet people and non-spreadsheet people. It’s like the Beatles vs. Elvis – you can like both, but you can’t be both a Beatles man (or woman) and an Elvis man.
