what horses would you like to see a nyra stake named after

[my miss storm cat]

Honestly I suck at this and have so much history to catch up on BUT if we're just talking about, well not necessarily a G1 race but a small stakes race?

One of my favorite NY horses was Meese Rocks and, while there is probably a long list of deserving horses, will toss her name into the mix.

Win is really a no brainer selection.

She was a nice one...
I thought the idea, by Hooves, was a NYRA stake for {presumabably} NY Breds. I'm sure I read into that, but it sorta made sense, to me at least.... Which is why I suggested Saginaw...But then the thread sort of spun outta control into "pick a great horsey name that doesn't have a stake named after him/her at NYRA even though there are races at other tracks celebrating the same horsey name" contest.




Which is where I tuned out.

There definitely should be a race for Ferdinand. A great horse who won the Kentucky Derby and Breeders Cup Classic. The sad part was his death.
I dont think there was a race ever named in his honor.

How about the Arrrrr Stakes (for horses that haven't won a stakes yet) and then combine with the Pirates Bounty at Santa Anita for a cross country daily double!

Well yeah I assumed he meant for NY breds as well and I do like your suggestion of Saginaw.

Ghostzapper. He owned Belmont Park. Won at 6.5F, 7F, 1 mile, and a mile and an eighth.
