Shamu (Funtastic-Orca). Not sue how this got by the JC. I would think this would have fallen under "commerical significance" Looking at Equibase I see there have been a few US Shamus. I would think SeaWorld would have the name copyrighted or trademarked.

New 2 y/o SW filly Ringy Dingy (Dialed In - Wind Caper).

Both amusing and clever. Dialed In = phone = ring.

Yep--and all said with a sort of adenoidal snort!

I've found it easier to tear up tickets at 8/1 instead of 8/5.

G3SW/G1p Your Tent Or Mine, 2003 horse (Forest Camp - She's Got The Look, by Prospector's Music)

He only raced 4 times, winning the G3 Hollywood Prevue and finished 2nd in the G1 Hollywood Futurity. He went to stud in Australia. He was a complete failure however, siring 80 foals, 30 starters, 11 winners.

It's hard to imagine a horse so heavily connected to Chuck Fipke being given a truly clever name! PONYRCR doesn't include the youngster's gender, but this baby also has an owner/breeder connection to Claiborne/Dilschneider as well. Maybe the timeline worked out for them to get the name submitted first.🙂

Anyway, it is a neat name, and maybe Chuck had a little brain cramp and came up with something creative!☺️

Fipke bred the colt but sold him for 3k at the Keeneland September sale.

Well that probably means that somebody else besides Fipke named him, so everybody relax! All's right with the world!😅

Stumbled across a broodmare named Onefunsonofagun :lol: Just that gave me a chuckle, but then I checked her offspring and she has 2 daughters that are full siblings; Bulletproof One and Bulletproof Too.
