I started by asking who else deserves a race but this made me wonder something else...

Friday, 24 February 2012:
(excerpt)

Auckland Racing Club and the connections of champion New Zealand mare Sunline, will unveil the Sunline Memorial at Ellerslie on Auckland Cup Day on March 7.

A statue in commemoration of Sunline will be unveiled beside her grave just outside the entrance to the stables at Ellerslie Racecourse.

The world's highest earning racemare of her time, Sunline (Desert Sun x Songline) raced on 48 occasions for 32 wins including 13 Group I races, nine seconds and three thirds to earn over NZ$14.5 million.

She was named New Zealand Horse of the Year on four occasions and is also the only horse ever to win the Australian Horse of the Year title three times.

... but this is the line that I'm wondering about...

The Eddie D Stakes, which has Grade 3 status, is the new name for a race previously known as the Morvich Handicap, and is part of a change in stakes names for the autumn meeting.

Wonder how many and which ones...
