Not at all.

Heck, they paid 375K for a horse so they could name it Mendip.

They treat the naming of their horses like a public john in The Castro.

The Mendip Hills are a major feature in the West of England, rising between the valley of the Avon (which flows through Bath and Bristol) and the Somerset Levels. If you don't know what a name denotes, you assume that it's scatological? How juvenile.

Makes you wonder if the raceday medication, or lack thereof, is the difference.

Actually, taking in Celtic and Old English elements, the actual name "Mendip" can be taken to mean "A Mighty Hole".
