Clever Horses names?

Sometimes combining parents' names come up with clever offspring names, or just names taken from one parent or the other.

Example: Stephen Got Even has a baby named Don't Get Mad. Cute.

What's your favorite example of a clever horse's name?

  2. Well Hung

  3. There was a horse who ran I believe at Prairie Meadows named "Who Farted".  I have that on tape somewhere on one of those ESPN tapes.  Also, there was a horse that was a late scratch once because of the horse's name at Philadelphia Park.  The name was "Sofacanfast".  Sound that one out.

    I did see a few years ago a race from Australia, and I kid you not, one of the horses names was "Richard Cranium."  Couldn't get away with that in the US if you tried.

    Smarty Jones was named after co-owner Pat Chapman's mother.  Originally, the horse was to be named "Get Along", a variation of the dam (mother's) name "I'll Get Along"

  4. bob baffert trained a horse named : isitingood...is it in good

    and also liquor in excess, but change the name to censored.

    both horses were owned by mike p.

  5. I think "Trotter Boowinkle". Just because.

  6. My personal favourite was a filly over here in GB a good few years ago.  She was called GEESPOT.  Nothing amazing there you may think, but she was by Pursuit of Love out of My Discovery!  How that name got past the authorities I'll never know! Unfortunately she was not a very good racehorse, winning only twice from 33 starts.

    Another clever name I like is CLOG DANCE (Woodman ex Royal Fandango.

    Juddmonte are very good at naming their families with a theme.  For example Where You Lead had a daughter called I Will Follow, and another of her daughters founded a dynasty all of her own: Slightly Dangerous was the dam of Warning, amongst several other champions.

    BLUSHING GROOM was another well named horse, being by Red God out of Runaway Bride.

  7. This isn't a clever play on the pedigree, but every time I hear Trevor Denman call "Hoof Hearted" it never ceases to bring a chuckle!

    I always loved Dance Brightly (Mr. Prospector/ Dance Smartly)... Godspeed my beloved Dance Smartly!

    Halfbridled ( Unbridled/ Half Queen)

  8. Be glad?

  9. I love some of the Phipps names, especially legacies.  For example:

    Pure Profit (a daughter of of Key to the Mint) had daughters named Educated Risk (by Mr. Prospector) and Inside Information (by Private Account)

    Resolver ( a daughter of Reviewer) had a daughter named Dispute and a son named Adjudicating.
