Off the top of my head, and not in order:
Sunny's Halo
Winning Colors
Sunday Silence
Go for Gin
Thunder Gulch
Smarty Jones.
And all but the last were due to my excellent "I liked the name best" method. Sigh...
I did for a while have a remarkable skill at picking the winner of the Belmont for the Derby and giving up on the horse just in time for the Belmont. (Editor's Note, Touch Gold, Victory Gallop). The Editor's Note one still hurts. I remember I spent that Belmont in an OTB right next to a theater where I was performing in "Of Mice and Men." Boy, Curly's Wife was cranky in the evening show that day...
