not that sir barton will know/care.

For that matter, neither will Barbaro. But I know how you feel about seeing the TC winner's name get dumped. Well, times change, I guess.

I can see how they wanted to name a stakes race after Barbaro, but why the Sir Barton? This race has a pretty good tradition. I'm all for renaming the CompUSA Dixie the Barbaro Stakes instead.
