Declaring (R2 Swan Hill tonight)
On The Attack x Our Girl Claire
Very clever (cricket fans?)
Art Of Deception (notched 2nd win tonight at Ballarat)
Modern Art x Dont Tell Lib
Plenty of interesting names amongst the winners at Cranbourne tonight
http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-re...R121115&ms=vic
But it struck me as odd
that the winner of race 2
Good Boy Ali is by Bad Boy Truscott
while the winner of race 3
Bad Boy Brad is by Righteous Hanover
both 5yo geldings - could the foals have been switched at birth
I think we have another possible Harness racing Reality TV series here ;)
I am in the habit of looking at first starters to check the reasoning behind their names
I cannot resist putting this NON name in
Tomorrow night at Bendigo
Who Wokem goes around for the first time
being by Art Colony from Velcro
he should have been called Drawing Pin
Justarumour,
Tell All x Juslika
3yo filly Artikulate Miss won her first race at her 8th start at Bendigo today
The name is 'clear and effective' :D
Art Major x Tika
Wrong thread Kev?
From the sport of Kings
No Woody
Foreplay x Degeneres

Lmao ^^^^^^
3yo filly who had her first start at Melton (St Arnaud) tonight
The Heat Is On
Rock N Roll Heaven x Red Hot Rita
2yoF scratched from Ballarat tonight (maybe she was in season and they were not taking any chances :))
Pantzup:

I am not sure it is a brilliant name but I am wondering what is the maximum length of name allowed in NZ?
I am assuming that Wegottarocketmachine is allowed 20 letters as he is a NZer (Australian limit is 18)
2yo first starter in the 4th at Ballarat
Play A Little = Shadow Play x Jilliby Midget
Although I think I would have gone with one of the first poems I can remember (which just stays under 18 characters)
Ihavealittleshadow
Winner of tonights 2C&G Breeders Crown Silver Pace in the quick 1.56.9
Bettor Be Gold = Bettors Delight x Pyrites
Great thread. I need some help. Our yearling needs to be named. Flair For Life - American Ideal. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
I dont know whether you are old enough to know this classic movie Stephen but the first thing that popped in my head was Easy Rider
Name has not been used since 1970
I will keep working on it ;)
Wait - if you're talking NZ it has been used recently.
I was going to look back in the pedigree Stephen but I can't find a Flair For Life
Impeccable Pizzazz, bit of a mouthful for poor old commentator :)
or Polished Pizzazz :)
I hope I spelt it right.. Yep, definitely Flair for Life ((life Sign - French Flair)
Really weird Stephen. She is on the HRA db because you can get to her under French Flair but if you search using her own name it comes up No Match
Your mare is a half sister to 2 millionaires!
Drawing on her 2nd dam I now like the sound of Franco Americain (French American)
I put the name in the "general search" on HRA and it came up no problems.
My suggestion is "Swagger". Not used since 1969 and currently trendy !
Fifth time lucky - coming up for me now :)
Hi Stephen I have been a great fan of the WWE Bullshirt wrestling for decades. There is a wrestler called Nature Boy Rick Flair "world champ" 16 times walks around with bottle blonde hair Perhaps Nature Boy Flair etc; there would be many people who would understand the name and perhaps they would have a just for luck flutter You could always try muckingrefarkable not that hard to get your tongue around tho doubt it would pass
I thought I had spotted another story like the one above when I was looking up Ima Dad at Yarra Valley yesterday but this gelding has no progeny so it would seem a strange choice even if the dam is Daddy PayQuote:

See post 131 in this thread Mark - I noticed her back in May but she was scratched. It is a clever one but it would be hard to 'stuff up' that pairingQuote:

What are the choices Stephen? How far will they need to go down the list do you reckon?
We're chopping the list down from the below: (Love the U S Of Neigh!)
Yankee Trailblazer
U S of Neigh
Lord Zest
American Zest
Creole
Xest
Yindyssagh
Franco American
U S of Neigh is VG
Xest and Yindyssagh are facepalm thread for me
Franco American should be Franco Americain or else you are mixing your languages
hahaha, just auto correct Kevin.. Yes Franco Americain. Interesting to see whether we'll get away with U S.. Anyway, I'll let you know what the result is.
Smiling Assasin a 3yo making his debut in R2 at Bendigo tomorrow night
Grinfromeartoear x Easy Target
You would have guessed the sire and now knowing the dam, probably think you could have come up with it but no matter how easy - it is a beauty
This one is almost too clever
UNTYTHEHOOD = Robin Hood x Aunty Jean
I just noticed this one (after his 20th start)
Fairest Fella = Artistic Fella x Mirra Mirra
I like it

How did You Ninety Two get his name? Well Peter told us that You Ninety Two is the name of Uranium. 92 is the number of Uranium on the periodic table of Elements. This is real interesting as You Ninety Two's grandmother is called Atomic Fusion and Auckland Reactor's mother is called Atomic Lass.
