Wasn't the Sprint $2 mil last year? Did they create the newest ridiculous BC race, the Juvy Sprint, for 500K and take the money from the Sprint?

The Sprint's purse was $2 million from 2005 to 2010.
Breeders' Cup Juvenile Sprint added
From bottom of the article:
So your answer is yes for sure.Total purses for the two-day Championships this year will remain at $26 million, which includes purses for the undercard races on both days. The purse of this year’s Sentient Jet Breeders’ Cup Sprint will be $1.5 million. It was contested at a $2 million purse in 2010.
What a joke. We have gone from 7 to 8 great races with two juvy races and now there are 15 races and 5 are juvy races. I guess it is all about getting black type for breeding as quickly as possible.Originally Posted by Flanders

I don't like all the added races. It dilutes the races and taking purse away from other races is ridiculous. I had no idea until you said that they had done this. The Breeders' Cup should only have races for the Championship divisions.
