hahahahaha! The Kernel would be proud :p
IanAlbert, Ian Albert naturally, but if you break it into another configuration it starts with I and ends with Bert. Obviously not Sesame Street fans.
Deserves nomination Robert for the mere fact that they did not do the obvious and name the horse Ian (space) Albert.
ps I bred to Albert Albert once (but mare missed) and had planned to call a colt Isaac Isaacs - first Governor General of Australia
I remember one going around in Adelaide a few years back called 'ivana my name back'. Was originally named 'Ivana humpalot' but owners were made to change before it raced!
Frank the Duck in the last at Warragul tomorrow is a shocker
Bevstuanmarylu (in the fifth at Echuca tonight)
Bev, Stu and Mary Lou, I know you bred her as well but I think a personalized number plate on the horse truck may have been more appropriate for this one :D
ps At least it has a sing-song ring to it

Keep it up TC
now even my cat is crying
Puddinhead races in SA I think at the moment
At least that one made me laugh Kyle but the owners cannot really expect Puddin to make them money when they land him with that tag
Anyone seen him?
Uncle Wingnut
I don't hate that one Rich but I can see that it is not that respectful of a noble steed - more suited as a nickname for an old labrador
Not necessarily a "poor horse name", but may explain some poor horses who have to go around with a set of pink racing colours with a monkey silhouette on them:
Before having an interest in any horses, a mate and I bought our first race dog. We asked a trainer to keep a look out for something already racing, inexpensive but that might give us a few good nights.
He rang us a month later telling us he had found one, but it was just a little over our budget... when we heard its name, we had to buy him: "Monkey Spunk" (referred to in this article)...
Won his first four starts in a row for us in May 2006, and now happily retired living with us trying to avoid my 2yo running him over with his trike! Hence the Pink Monkey racing colours that Yaya and the team get lobbed with...

Great story Adam. These are the stories that need to get out into the public arena - this is what will promote our industry. Everyone that sees the pink monkey colours should know this story - it makes our sport more interesting. Thanks for telling it Adam
ps How did Monkey Spunk get thrown into that article you linked ?
Thats a great story Adam, there is nearly always a lot more below the surface than above it, so now I can see the blue dog is responsible for the monkey on the pink colours!!!:D
Cheers,
Dan
Hi Kevin: there were a number of articles at the time that were about Brett Lee and his namesake greyhound - and the article started saying that if they were going to allocate names to cricketers, Monkey Spunk would be allocated to Warnie... but I can't seem to find that article online.
Danno: yeah, the pink came into it because his first win was from the 8 box!
Each of his back legs have been reconstructed as a result of two accidents (once in a race ending his racing career, and once at home, ending his cat-chasing career).
There is nothing funnier than watching people's reaction when my wife (who looks asian but is as aussie as a meat pie) is yelling out "Monkey" at our dog down the park... People just look at her / I and must think "that poor asian lady thinks a dog is a monkey"...
Cenosilocaphobia - a great word but they spelt it wrong. Should be Cenosillicaphobia
Does anyone recall the pacer, for memory raced in SA back in the early to mid 90's called JACK DOFF......
Worst race name
Cordina Chicken Farms Sprint
I know we need sponsorship but you would barely put up with it on your C0 winning photo :rolleyes:
One from the 90's I came across when looking up NZ pedigrees
Debbie Duck
Geelong tomorrow
Croutons
Commercial TV is probably to blame
You see somebody named his dam Cuppa Soup
because her sire was Continentalman
I could nearly have put Croutons in the brilliant names thread but the dam namer is to blame - you cannot call a horse Cuppa Soup!
Once again, not necessarily a face-palmer, fairly interesting and controversial if I am reading it right (I'm probably not) but I could not bring myself to put it in the Brilliant thread
Suspicious Behavia
Grinfromeartoear - Shes A Christian
Echuca winner from tonight - Tepary (another long shot to legend Neville Welsh)
is from a mare U R Whatu Eat. You shouldn't do that to a horse.
Cannot fault the reasoning behind it mind you as she was by
Frugal Gourmet from Iam What Iam
Continuing on the food theme
Eat Your Vegies (Race 1 Geelong today)
Is simply a shocker as there is no reasoning behind the breeding to justify it
Machncheese (Race 2) is one of the worst Mach Three names I have seen
He has been going around for a while but tonight's winner
Brother Rabbit deserves a better moniker
We are talking horse names here
Another where they forgot they have a horse is
Ima Grumpy Possum
We had a mare named Chorister , by Chapel Chief from
Boat Song...thought that was pretty well named.
Definitely one for the brilliant names thread Noel
Why didn't they just call it Regal Fosters? Sretsof must have been a mouthful for the callers. Or would it be because such a commercial name would be seen as advertising?
Holy Cow Rich, can you believe there is a galloper called Uncle Wingnut going around in Vic too
Just found Argus Tuft. Won 9 from 63 starts.

Thoroughbred champ: Makybe Diva
In fact Melbourne Cup champ was named by using the first two letters of the girls who worked in the owner's office: Marie, Kylie, Belinda, Diane, and Vanessa.
2yo first starter at Charlton on Monday
Inthecarpark
Would you choose this name for a champion?
Wyckoff (even if I was to believe he was named after the famous stock trader)
Dicon Lifetti
Live Or Die x Confetti
I can see where it comes from but why?
