Which makes me wonder what Stay Thirsty's owners were thinking when he was named. I prefer XXX Dos Equis, but it's pretty hard to find here.

I hear ya, I mean more on a national level. After a maiden breaking score at Toga , the horse wasn't seen again till March I think so there wasn't really a groundswell.

I'm sure the Stay Thirsty gang can only hope for the kind of success Big Brown had...and maybe a longer career.

Dos Equis is alright. I like the "Stay Thirsty" connection.

I would have liked seeing these folks named instead:
