follow on thread - worst "posh" names...

Cocaine Joke....

Neither BE or BS would register her with it... Comical on a XC course through... "And this is Lynda on Cocaine... oh, er, umm... Joke"
 
there was a racehorse years ago called Poor Skin. supposed to be Poor Skiv, after the owner's wife's nickname, but it got misread at Weatherbys iirc. apparently vets used to check it all over looking for the skin complaint...
there was an eventer a few years ago called The Backbreaker, i can't believe anyone ever got on that (WFP rode it for a while iirc.)
am i allowed to mention the same horse on this thread as i did on the other one?
Airbus The Rock Phenomenon has to be the worst name ever, really, I think. that evented at Novice level in the early '90s, i saw its name in quite a few programmes.
i usually forget the bad names, try to just remember the good ones!
 
My horses is pretty weird: Potted Shrimp :/ Why on earth they decided to call him that i'll never know! His stable name is Shrimp which i love but the 'potted' bit is just weird! Entries secretaries used to find it amusing though :D
 
Theres an x race horse on our yard called "Monster Jawbreaker"! (monster is his stable name) I once knew a show jumper called Frilly Knickers!
 
I used to know a showjumper called Topless.....was fine when commentator read out "Topless ridden by ******", but tragic when they announced "and this is ****** riding Topless."
 
One for the scottish lot - my old showjumper was called Paisley B. Fine in itself except I was at Uni in Bearsden, Glasgow and horse lived nearby. Try screaming PAISLEY across a field on the edge of Glasgow :o he was quickly renamed :p
 
Our Quarter Horse mare is called Lil Blip of Blosser, a name that I have always hated. Apparently her mother was unexpectedly in foal when imported, and our poor little madam is her 'Blip'! Commentators can never pronounce it - one German commentator refused to try! We're hoping that she is in foal and her baby's name will be chosen very carefully!
 
Mines name is Clever Girl VD Cumul, I love the Clever Girl bit but the rest sounds like a S*xually transmitted disease!!! BS is just Clever Girl, but BE used the whole bloody lot despite me begging lol!!!
 
Hi guys I just have to say thank you for sharing this thread... it's made me laugh SO much I've just snorted tea all over my keyboard at work ;)
 
A friend of mine has a horse called Pax. Never thought much of it until a few months ago, when we had a visiting instructor who noticed his 'proper' name on a saddlecloth.

Turns out she had him in her yard as a youngster with no name(he's 18 now), and his stable neighbour was called Tam.................!!!!!!!!!
 
Love listening to the names at shows.
Recently I heard ' Barbie Pony', pony was a trad type connemara ridden by a teenage boy, poor guy must have been mortified, especially when he was talking to some of his mates and his mother shouted ''do you need a leg up on Barbie?'' :p
I am guilty of putting an Irish spelling of Banshee on a pony's passport, BeanSi :o
My guy is 'Birr Sean', I think that's pretty bad really. I'd love to rename him as Utter Nutter, but think that could cause problems when someone other than me has to ride him :D
 
Someone I used to know way back in my youth had a horse called Fanny - a friend who used to commentate XC at Osberton used to take great delight in announcing "now we have Miss ........ riding her very own F....!!! I think he thought it was amusing?!?!:rolleyes:
 
My new girls race name is Wildlife, i didn't think that was particularly great. Although makes a little more sense when you know her sire is 'Environments Friend'
 
The worst I ever heard was a horse called "******" after it was purchased the name got rapidly changed :D
