Poor guy. Is there anyone in that area that could give him a soft place to land?
Edited to add: I definitely can’t afford to keep another horse, but I’m only a few hours away so I might be able to help with transportation and such if someone can find him a home.[/QUOTE]
Sticky, can you tell them of your offer? I know they have to be picked up (if they are saved) on Tuesday, exactly at 4pm.
Also, they have only until Saturday to be paid for.
Sent a bit of $$. With such a crazy JC name… He deserves a bit of good luck and soft landing.
I saw an OTTB at a show called Twinkle Star- a spooky bay stallion at that!
I have had:
Heather A
Sir Sin
Mikey Knows It
Wee Dee Trrr
The last one is the only one I kept.
Mr. Short Knocks? Truly sad, but a good horse.

Not JC, but the one that always sticks in my mind is the AQHA name:
Barbie Doll Blob
My mare’s JC name is Xtralicous and it always reminds me of an exotic dancer.
My mare is Val Caponi. Her sire is Volponi. I love her name!
White Stromboli. He is a brown-bay color, though “White” is in his dam’s name. No idea about the Stromboli. Everyone keeps asking if my next horse is going to be named Lasagna or Pizza?

Sprite, yes she was bred at the Southern Illinois University. Thanks for clearing up where the Saluki part came from.[/QUOTE]
Neat! If she’s by the same stallion I’m thinking of, I believe I rode one of her half-sisters (or whatever the correct term is). Also I’m originally from Carbondale, so your mare being from there made me irrationally excited ;).
I have had Walter Twoeagles (loved that name), Slick Ridge, Bronze Avril, Zippy Gambler, Whirlaway Hank.
My mare now is a saddlebred. Their names are even worse! Lol. Her reg name is “Adelita, Spirit of Denmark”.
Adelita is a Mexican warrior woman. Nothing to do with Denmark.
I saw a STB racing under this name:
Gigi McCouille
In english it would translate like:
Gigi McBalls

Reminds me of dungrulla’s horse, whose JC name is “Keyhole”. She jokes that one day she will own a string of racehorses and they will all be named after household objects/appliances.
“HERE COMES DISHWASHER/CEILING FAN/DOORKNOB/ETC.”
It’s no wonder she tanked on the track
I recently brought home U R Clueless, a lovely bay mare out ofU R My Valentine, by Famous Forest. Thankfully her barn name is Clue. Still working on a show name, but leaning toward Miss Moneypenny.

2.1 Miss Scarlett
2.3 Mrs. White
2.5 Mrs. Peacock
3.1 Miss Peach
3.3 Madame Rose
6.1 Lady Lavender

That was definitely my first inclination, and I was leaning toward Mrs. Peacock, but Moneypenny seems to suit her better than any of the Clue characters. However, I’ve never heard the last three you listed, so I might try this on for size and see! Thanks!
My mom’s new 3 y/o. Absolutely stunning horse. Has an awful name.
Him OK. -_-
