Nah, that's still thinking too small.

Just rename the BC Classic the Zenyatta Classic and carry her to the post on a giant float with a trojan horse figure of Z made entirely out of flowers and seeds like the Rose Parade. Screw it, rename the Rose Parade the "Zenyatta Parade."

Renaming racetracks is very popular these days...

How about on day 1 of the BC having the Ladies Zenyatta Classic and on day 2, having the Zenyatta Classic?

I prefer to just have one day of the World Zenyatta Championships.

Well, yeah, but you can still have both races. Which, by the way, she's won both of.

They should probably wait until she's in foal though to announce the change.

Nah, she'd just end up being the first BC winner to accomplish a victory while in foal.
