That screws up the vacation days I planned.

I hear you...that is why I started this thread.  I am only going now if they are moving the whole Futurity Day program.

Futurity is just another race since they dropped multiple heats. Insult to past winners to even keep the same name.

I am guessing they moved it because breeders crown eliminations are October 16th and 17th, so the 11th didn't provide enough time off. Furthermore the LBJ is late this year..September 24th.. so October 3rd works better for shippers from Delaware to Lexington
