It doesn't say anything about the Betfair Exchange covering it?

Very annoyed about BC this year.

The Saturday card starts 4pm UK time. The reason why it’s my favourite racing of the year... is it’s the only time I can sit down in my living room with some beers & takeaway and watch until the early hours.

The Classic is around 9.45pm!!!

The decent races usually start around 8pm.

The coverage will clash with UK racing. So only half a days trading for me next week. Bummer!!

Just checking out Breeder's Cup markets.

Friday is a ten race card, but betfair only has 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 up at the moment?

Saturday is a twelve race card, only ten are up so far, maybe these will be loaded in to the API later?

If I remember correctly they did that the last time the BC was run at a venue not normally covered, and skipped the less important races.

Feel like this year's meeting will be a lot less liquid than past years..

Tomorrow only 2 horses from GB/Ireland are favourites (Enable and Wild Illusion) and the Classic looks a wide open contest

Looking forward to trading it nonetheless and will probably trade the first couple of races tonight just to see how it fares

The bookies have priced up every race, don't know what the problem is with Betfair?

I just had a warm up. Didn't go as expected, but got away with it! Will hopefully be on better form tomorrow!

Wasn't expecting too much from tonight but I've not managed to get into it as much as I hoped just yet

With US racing they should just announce when there's no objection, rather than when there is!

It was a good drift then reversal on the fav in the first. Plenty of money about.
