Worst Race Horse Names

[jjacks1]

Okay last time I said Spineless Jellyfish, then found out some people thought he was cool. How about Rat Like Cunning? (Poor Horse!)

I still can't get over Giacomo Strap. I wonder if he's broken his maiden yet?

Nope, looks like just the one race on 5/30 at PRM, no current works either.

[Delamont]

Don't even get me started.  :P

And one of our favorites, You're a Nation, slowed to a mere trickle again a few weeks ago at GG. Poor thing, she really can't run a lick.  Whoever named her that should never, ever be allowed to ever name another horse, period.

Speaking of Giacomo (see above), his daughter has one of the worst names for a racehorse.  Well, that's just my humble opinion.

Bless her heart, she's still running.

You can thank the inimitable Roger Stein for that one.

Still feel bad about Rotten To The Core, by Orientate.  Poor guy suffered a fatal injury last
year at Aqueduct when he clipped heels and fell hitting his head.  Couldn't have been too proud
of his name...

A few days ago I was half asleep when reading something horse racing related.  I thought I read a horse's name was something horrid and looked and I had misread.  So I had to check Equineline and unfortunately, there really was a horse named Motion Lotion though.

I know there are more than enough Kittens, Slews and Tizzes, but what's the deal with spelling "Super" as "Souper?"

Souper Spectacular was the worst. 

[Zenyatta]

Oy, Souper Knight finished 2nd in a little stake at Laurel just now. 

[WarBiscuit]

And Souper Speedy finished 2nd at GP in the Millions Classic preview this afternoon!
