I am dying to see what they name the 2YO by Put it Back out of Restraining Order.

I am always telling my husband to put things back!
Plus he's such a scamp, I lovingly tell him that is we ever have a kid, he's not actually allowed to see it till the kid's 18. I am going to have no discipline if he lives with us and they see how he gets mom (scaring me, ice down my back, prank calls, etc.) every time. So I'd need a restraining order.

We should own that horse!

There is an old bellamy bros song, get into reggae cowboy that hit the charts for a while. maybe thought that's what they were singing, poetic license, or literal translation.

My first trainer in Oregon had another owner with the following:
Too Good for the Wife
Too Good for the Ex

No doubt what happened there!

There is a TB racing at Portland meadows this season named Chickenpotpie.

I have a QH mare, Inherit the Win, who I bred to Ex Marks the Cop (TB) by InExcess, the colts name is Excess Inheritance. My wealthy inlaws think this is some kind of sick joke!

I love the name game, next to the babies, my favorite part of horse ownership!

Some Easy Goer offspring that I think had clever names:
Above the Line out of Pure Profit.
Amourous Emperor out of Empress of Love.
Cayman Went out of Secret Holdings.
Merciful Judge out of Fair to All.
Multiply out of Add out of Number.
On Ice out of Baltic Chill.
Pleasant Chatter out of Tea Room.
Relaxing Rhythm
Swipe out of Snitch out of Fuchsia Filch by No Robbery out of Regal Purple.
Waltzing Along out of Dancing All Night.

Rock Hard Ten is a great name



Everytime I say this someone tries to give me the NBC dramalog story behind it.

But damn it... to me:

Rock Hard Ten just sounds DIRTY

if i was lucky enough to ever afford breeding to "rock hard ten" i would pray for a filly "rock hard tatas"

I normally don't like strung together names but Somethingroyal is pretty great. I kinda enjoy Black Tie Affair, Affirmed, Azeri, and Astas Foxy Lady. There are a lot of them but for oldie goldies some of the ones I like Domino, Bewitched, Man O' War, Spendthrift, Merry Token, Rock Sand, Wildair, On Watch, Pensive and Gallorette.
