Why does DRF STAKES list SPIRAL as

= TURFWAY PARK
==> JACK Cincinnati Casino Spiral S.(Grade 3) <====
$200,000.00; 3 Year Olds
1 1/8 Miles

*** BUT EQUIBASE LISTS IT AS

==> **Race 10 $200,000 Jeff Ruby Steaks S. 1 1/8 Miles

ANYONE KNOW HOW THE SAME RACE CAN BE CALLED 2 DIFFERENT NAMES

My thought is that if we don't go to Turfway this week, we ain't going this year.


Put another way, I'm old enough to be nostalgic about The Jim Beam Stakes.


But please know this: I'm playing wherever we go!


P.S. I enjoyed retracing all the names of the race that kept Turfway in the conversation in years gone by, JolyB.

Studies have shown that in every group there is a certain and predictable percentage that did not get the memo.

Or perhaps DRF are just having fun with the constant change of names and sponsors.

Irony
Altitude Sports TV (they join up with TVG)
They will be airing the race on Saturday and their listing says = SPIRAL S
