Has a horse ever come back from retirement to win a race named after him/her?

Zenyatta by 5 in the Zenyatta....

I think that's part of the problem. She was on that track less than a month ago and now there is a race there named after her?

I'm not a monster fan of naming a race for Barbaro...but at least he was dead, thus making it a memorial. Zenyatta is barely a normally spaced layoff away from another race...and she already has a race named after her? It's awkward.

And as to the person who said they weren't happy that the Sir Barton was renamed...at least you can't say you were upset because of all the times you saw Sir Barton run, in person.

But see on the West Coast, Zenyatta is a religion and this move may sway spine free voters in her direction.

Zenyatta wouldn't beat a 5 claimer by five nevermind a 50k claimer. That isnt her way ..
