to think that if you go through a thread on here just reading the names it sounds like the commentary on the horse racing?

I've just tried to find out if there has been a horse called Shatner's Bassoon, and it seems as if there is, but only on a gambling machine game that's popular in America Confused

I now need a pony called Mrs Premise Grin

MrsWedgeAntilles · 10/09/2013 18:54

BodaciousTatas? How did they get that past the horse naming folk? Or do I just have a dirty mind?

Bodacious Tatas was indeed a racehorse! She was born in 1985 and raced 15 times in the USA, winning 5 times and over $400,000 in prize money.

The rules in America, where this horse was born, are slightly different, they will allow things that the UK won't and vice versa.

I don't think my name would pass muster at wetherbys. "And Twattybollocks has run a blinder....."

A mad horse destined for a cheap lasagne? Confused

Skinheadmermaid · 10/09/2013 20:39

I'd be very surprised if a racehorse had my name (would be epic though-i bet the queen would use the name!)

TempusFuckit · 10/09/2013 21:03

Does my Latin outweigh my swears?

FrankelInFoal · 10/09/2013 21:19

Someone tried to name horses Wearthefoxhat and Norfolknchance a few years back. Try saying the names quickly in an Irish accent Wink

Littlegreyauditor · 10/09/2013 21:29

I was just thinking of that ^ Grin

(Littlegreyauditor coming up the outside...)

Littlegreyauditor · 10/09/2013 21:30

Grr, too fast, I was just thinking of the Alan Partridge thing, not long names or Alf Ramsey's porn dungeon.

BlackeyedSusan · 10/09/2013 21:35

FrankelInFoal · 10/09/2013 21:37

I will share with you all

If you've never heard of him, just watch the video and see why many people call him the best horse that has ever lived. He even has his own website Grin

Littlegreyauditor · 10/09/2013 21:39

So raging I didn't think of "onion terror" or "trust me I'm a stomach" as names when I joined MN Envy

natwebb79 · 10/09/2013 21:40

Actually pissing myself at 'Twattybollocks has run a blinder'! Grin

FoundAChopinLizt · 10/09/2013 21:40

Am I banned? Or did I fall at the first fence?

MrsWedgeAntilles · 10/09/2013 21:44

Alf Ramsay's Porn Dungeon :)
Years ago Rich Hall did an advert where he stood on a rain soaked Scottish hillside in a fur cap. He said "Auchtermuchty, everyone said 'wear the Fox hat"
