Re: Horse Racing
Name targeting Classic glory.

Mikel Delzangles feels What A Name is an "improved" horse as the French handler seeks a second Newmarket Classic in Sunday's Qipco 1000 Guineas.
A daughter of Mr Greeley, What A Name won two of her four starts as a juvenile and ran top colt Olympic Glory to within two lengths in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere at Longchamp on Arc day.
She reappeared at Maisons-Laffitte in the Prix Imprudence, easing to what was ultimately a cosy success.
Delzangles, who won the 2000 Guineas in 2010 with Makfi, said: "I am very pleased with her and she has improved since winning the Prix Imprudence. That was the perfect comeback for her as she did not have a hard race and was only 80 per cent fit.
