Default Need help naming a race at Belmont

Won a Belmont package in an auction and visiting on Mother Goose day. I have to provide a name for a race that day. Any creative suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

If you have a girlfriend or wife (or both), the answer should be obvious.

Or, in honor of our gracious host:

The Thanks Steve Byk

Or, if you want to get him more page hits:

Where are you staying? If in Queens, the "Austins Ale House Derby" would likely get you fed and drunk for the duration of your visit...

"Serpe's Hot" was a catch phrase from the summer Hooves and Oey spent at Chez Byk working the Slave-B-Cue... "I gave out the Super" also grew out of the nightly capping sessions at the kitchen table. Was a FUN and FUNNY 6 weeks...

I know this seems obvious but
Do they have a race named after Funny Cide?
What about the part owner of Funny Cide that died last year, Dave Mahan?
