I just had the thought if I were a breeder and owned Prairie Fire (Posse), I'd name her foals "Little House" themed names.

Juliet Foxtrot (GB)
Dansili (GB) – Kilo Alpha (GB)

Juliet Foxtrot... JF... Juddmonte Farms?
Kilo Alpha... KA... Khalid Abdullah?

Maybe I'm just a conspiracy theorist, most of Kilo Alpha's foals have some mention of the military alphabet.

What’s wrong with that ? It’s a great name (for a talented colt)...

Mandella has an Honor Code baby currently working well named Above Suspicion...love that name

Phoenix Thoroughbreds is a trash organization owned by a con man, I think that’s why Ethical Judgement is more than a little bit ironic.

It’s not the horse, it’s the irony of THAT owner using the name. Google Phoenix Thoroughbred or its founder, Amer Abdulaziz Salman. A good place to start:

That sounds more like a Klaravich name.

Except that Ethical Judgement is a cool (as far as I'm concerned) play on his sire's name, whereas the Klaravich names are boring, dry names (again, IMO) that have little to do with their sire or dam.

Ethical Judgement won today, at Belmont IIRC. Looks a lot like his sire.
