Default The (lame) name game, 2010 edition

I was thinking about the battle of the wives...

... and other races or outcomes with names that were somehow connected or appropriate.

Of course there was Arlington Million Day...

The 2010 Cathay Pacific Hong Kong Sprint exacta...JJ the Jet Plane / Rocket Man.

Able One is an aging star of HK racing. He's 8 now and the older he gets, the better he gets. Even people who don't follow HK probably know a lot of these names... great fields and not his only wins this year mind you... just the really good ones!

Winning the Chairmans Trophy

From an incidents report for HK runner Couldn't Care Less..
When questioned, A Suborics was not able to offer any explanation for the disappointing performance of COULDN CARE LESS which he said failed to travel at any stage of the race.

Wait for Me is a HK cellar dwellar (Class 5) who is very good at living up to his awful name.
12 starts this year and ummm... lets just say no wins.
(Poor guy no need for a link).

Of course there's one with no explaination needed...

Blame. *****

In New Zealand there's an up-and-coming superstar, He's Remarkable (and wow, is he!).

Can you guys think of any?

(Shut up I said it was lame in the title).

(I'm a fan of both Blame and Zenyatta since some people seem to think otherwise).
