If you are going to pay tribute to the greatest jockey why would you add his name to a mediocre handicap?

Rio Ferdinand Foundation Northern Dancer Handicap is a bit odd.
I thought Fred might have stepped in and shared top billing with the Great Man....He missed a trick there.
Agree -
(Outside of Handicaps) - They could have only added his name to the - Diomed Stakes - or, Princess Elizabeth Stakes -
- and Both of them are sort of 'put of bounds' for differing reasons.
The Betfred Lester Piggott Derby - would have garnered by far more publicity for the bloke from Salford ....
But, perhaps, the powers that be thought that was 'out of bounds', too.
