Does this mean they aren't sure who the sire of the soon to be foal is?

I once saw a horse's past performances where the sire was listed as "Unknown sire" - in that instance the horses mare turned up pregnant unexpectedly and they kept the foal - and it happened to race and I believe win a few times.

Never seen two sires listed in a form before though.
