Non-political facts:

smuck means cute or pretty.

The Dixie Handicap or Dixie Stakes (it has been both) was first run in 1870 as (wait for it) . . .

The Dinner Party Stakes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinner_Party_Stakes)

And if the Maryland Jockey Club (the name changers, I believe) so offends you, no one forcing you to wager on their races.

This not a fact; only my opinion: No one quite as offended as they claim regarding much involving woke schmucks! (And that's why, my guess, you won't abstain from betting on Pimlico races today!) In all seriousness: I hope you cash today, most especially on this race (and have a laugh about the original name coming back and not affecting the outcome at all.)
