I thought this thread was going to be about Ittasak, aka Dynever. I guess it still could be.

Sure it can.

Zacocity became Sattaie, Premium Tap Allam, Muller is now Alsaqeer and Joe Louis... didn't they change his name too?

Nice horse who won everyones favorite race, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup . I think he had a name change too but just cannot remember and don't feel like spending the night looking for Saudi racing sites.

I won't bombard anyone with all the HK runners... let's just say there are a LOT (but at least they get cool, somtimes fun, interesting or occassionally really really bad names. As far as I'm concerned these beat Sattaie and Allam any day of the week).

Dynever did not have a name change. He's dead now, colic got him late 2011, but has been a really successful sire.

I'm almost certain he did have a name change to the one I listed. I have the old PPs somewhere.

Well I realize that most of you had probably had many sleepless nights wondering about this...

Kharimes! That's the awful name he ran under!

It was driving me mad.

Muller as well... he became Alsaqeer poor guy.

Okay I'll step away from the nice thread now...

I started by asking who else deserves a race but this made me wonder something else...

Who deserves a statue?

I think when folks hear "the Mine That Bird Derby" they'll assume you wanna talk about when Mine That Bird won the Kentucky Derby.

But the Dr Dino has such a nice flow to it. Of course the Solar Splendor or Majestys Price (both 2 time winners) do as well.
