Nyquist and Not This Time are certainly off to good starts. They both scored their first G1 winners on Sunday with Vequist and Princess Noor, respectively.

Delight finished third. The impressive winner, Love Reigns, is by another freshman sire, U.S. Navy Flag. She’s trained by Wesley Ward, so Royal Ascot may be in her future.ThreeMustangs wrote: ↑Mon Apr 25, 2022 9:12 am

Girvin had his first starter and winner today at Churchill Downs In R2: Devious Dame. Great name—she is out of The Shady Lady.

Yeah it was Indiana Downs til 2014, then Indiana Grand. I just think the new name isn't good.Mylute wrote: ↑Thu May 05, 2022 4:48 pmWhat was it originally?Flanders wrote: ↑Thu May 05, 2022 4:06 pmEww I didn't know they renamed that track.

Why on earth did they rename Indiana Grand?
"Horseshoe Indianapolis" is such a mouthful. Why not just "Horseshoe Park" if they had to rename it?

The TVG analysts were eye-rolling about that name change. Counted out all the syllables and sympathized with the track announcers dealing with that mouthful.

Fr when I heard "Horseshoe Indianapolis" I assumed it was one of those tracks out west nobody knows exists that only got attention now for some reason.
