I love the horse, so don't miss my humor.

But I think "Lame Excuse" or "Safety Pin" would have been much better.

The gavel fell at $37,000 - Harry & Teresa Meyerhoff were now the owners of the steel grey yearling in the auction ring. They called their new colt Spectacular Bid, a name which would surely seem prophetic just a short year later.

Thought I'd dig this thread up and share some funny names of horses that have raced around in this part of the world.

Maythehorsebewithu
Far Gone Beauty
Hoof Hearted
She Sells Sea Shells (unfair on the poor caller)

I know there are more but can't think of them at the moment.

Actually...I have never thought of a name more cool than Funny Cide.

I think if Funny Cide were named anything different, he would lose some of that appeal. When I imagine a "Funny Cide," I imagine a happy go lucky type of horse.

When I think of the name Empire Maker, all I think about is darkness....evil...and tyranny. I could never like Empire Maker because of his blue blood and because his name pounded that blue blood image in my head. I mean c'mon..."Empire" Maker??? How about something more friendly...like....Friendly Maker??
