Secretariatwhisper is the correct name.

Either the name was changed from 'Royaltys Ruler' at some point and no one removed the old entry, or someone made up that name in order to make an entry for that colt before he was registered - a big database no-no. :wink:

You know
That Filly was supposed to be mine last year the owner Kim Leavitt asked me to name her and thats how Royalts Ruler came about. But then the JC said that the DNA didnt match so she didnt sell the horse to me and kept the name. The JC still had her listed as two names... why.. Im not to sure.

Interesting Lucy
The JC holds a name ( even though its not used ) for three years. So if anyone does a name change the old name an't be used for a while. That sucks.
