Have you ever met him?:)
He was at Arlington ponying. Steve said he's doing great.

Is he really? I always thought he looked a lot like his pops. :)

Yes, they officially retired him this past year at Oaklawn. He is one of the neatest horses I have ever been around. I introduced Barbara Livingston to him a couple of years ago (that's where the photo came from) and she just fell in love with him.

IMO a couple of beautiful names-
Fly to the Stars
Star Over the Bay ( I miss him)

A few funny names -
allineedisrehab
Turtle Soup
Cold Chicken

Horse names.....
 

If I were a trainer, or owner in my wildest dreams of course, I would want a a horse that made things look simple. Who with each stride they took in each race, (wishful thinking) looked as smooth as silk on the track. If, in my wildest dream I had such a horse, I couldn't think of a more fitting name than Easy Goer! Anybody with me, if you all had a horse, wouldn't you want one that just did it with ease :o)?
I for some reason like Horse Chestnut for a name as well, I can't say why lol.
2 other names which IMO project strength and winner are Bold Ruler, and Point Given. Great horses as well.

Too Drunk to Call, who only seems to run in the winter at Aqueduct, cracks me up.

There was a horse running at Keeneland last year named something like harderfasterlonger....I have no idea how that one got by!

Shoot the Buglar...Beer Belly Bob...another two I liked

Linny was the stable name of my (late) great showhorse.

I like the name Still Guilty, by Successful Appeal x Oh Jay.

Dixie Normas is the name of a bar, I think it's in NOLA.

Icecoldbeeratreds

Some of my local favorites were "OK so Far" a good router that had the lead at every pole.
"One Eyed Romeo" Hard knockin claimer that raced till he was 9.
The all time faverite name that got by the Jockey Club is "Rock Hard Ten"

One Eyed Romeo? I remember hearing about that horse. He had over 80 starts!

i thought lost in the fog was an awesome name......rip litf

Agree....that was a very cool name for a cool horse

Hall Lass.
colt by Touch Gold who ran for the coolest owner on the planet.

Repent

The Green Monkey

speaking of,
any idea when he is running?
I have not heard TVG mention him in a while.

Repent

I own a piece of a filly named The Kielbasa Queen. Oddly enough she has sucked so far.

I think "Citation" is pretty cool name as well !!

Aristides
War Admiral
Onion
Sunday Silence
and
Ona MacCool (if i spelled it correctly)

i always thought "strike the gold" was one of the cooler names.

Favorite
 

Favorite Name And Horse--joey Blueeyes

Four NY breds:

Hot Pastrami
On Rye
With Mustard
To Go

Names of my two fillies:
Shot o' Bourbon
Darlin' by Day

I always loved the name: Burnt Chicken.

2nd fave was: Arewehavingfunyet? Always wanted her to have a daughter named "yesimhavingfun".

Genuine Risk . . . great name for a thoroughbred.

Good call....and it was fitting that she was a runner

any one likes Ruffian??

She's on eof my all-time faves, but her nae isn't as cool as some of the others IMO....speaking of one-word names, I have always been intrigued by Claiborne Farms one-word name policy....pretty neat

Gator Growl

HAHA! What a great name! :D

actually love my dad's appendix's registered name, actually ran in Oklahoma

Pickup Artist

nickname ended up being pretty good too, my Dad calls him Taxi.

actually yes i love the name...

ruffian
–noun 1. a tough, lawless person; roughneck; bully.

suited her...she beat up on every horse she raced.

I always liked the name Spectacular Bid. It really fit him.

I love the horse, so don't miss my humor.

But I think "Lame Excuse" or "Safety Pin" would have been much better.

The gavel fell at $37,000 - Harry & Teresa Meyerhoff were now the owners of the steel grey yearling in the auction ring. They called their new colt Spectacular Bid, a name which would surely seem prophetic just a short year later.

kelso
also many of the names of sons of the great mr. prospector.

It was Ham Sandwich and his siblings were On Rye, With Mustard and To Go.

Thought I'd dig this thread up and share some funny names of horses that have raced around in this part of the world.

Maythehorsebewithu
Far Gone Beauty
Hoof Hearted :D
She Sells Sea Shells (unfair on the poor caller)

I know there are more but can't think of them at the moment.

Hucking Hot

Actually...I have never thought of a name more cool than Funny Cide.

I think if Funny Cide were named anything different, he would lose some of that appeal. When I imagine a "Funny Cide," I imagine a happy go lucky type of horse.

When I think of the name Empire Maker, all I think about is darkness....evil...and tyranny. I could never like Empire Maker because of his blue blood and because his name pounded that blue blood image in my head. I mean c'mon..."Empire" Maker??? How about something more friendly...like....Friendly Maker??

raced at GP and TAM

spongebobhorsepants

Dreadnaught-had gotten to be an "old turf warhorse" and Brilliant.
the first race call i heard for Brilliant was from Oak lawn and the track announcer did the beer commercial the whole race, BRILLIANT !! cracked me up ! :D
