CD renames La Troienne (And now renames the Louisville La Troienne!)

[Danzig]

i heard the news while driving home; i agreed with steve that it was a dumb idea. explained to my son how it was similar to sir barton being taken away for barbaro, and that there are actually two barbaro stakes now. at any rate, i also think if they wanted to honor eight belles, fine-but not at the expense of a mare the likes of la troienne.
i'd have rather a track that saw eight belles at her best honor her with a race, rather than where she broke down.

and really, enough with the 'had she run in the oaks' crap. hindsight leads us nowhere.
