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.

I hope everyone remembers the immortal Lily Tomlin and "One ringy-dingy. . .two ringy-dingies. . . "
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

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.

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!

Well that probably means that somebody else besides Fipke named him, so everybody relax! All's right with the world!Flanders wrote: ↑Mon Dec 25, 2023 2:07 amFipke bred the colt but sold him for 3k at the Keeneland September sale.Missbeholder wrote: ↑Sun Dec 24, 2023 7:35 pmIt's hard to imagine a horse so heavily connected to Chuck Fipke being given a truly clever name!

Stumbled across a broodmare named Onefunsonofagun 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.
