Or shorter answer: absolutely not.

Jeeze, you had to bring it up. How long before we have the Rachel Alexandra stakes at Delaware Park after or if she wins the Obeah?

Seriously, I think you guys should give back the Secretariat Stakes name to NYRA. However with these guys they probably wouldn't know what to do with it, and continue to treat naming races as a geography lesson.
