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.
It was not uncommon back in the day, but today, even if a mare if covered by 2 stallions in a season, DNA testing proves paternity.
