The big mystery.
My thoughts.
If she didn’t bother naming the horse...don’t think she will put a note telling you to keep the name haha

Maybe the note tells you what the name is? :)

Those were my thoughts! But if someone did get a note it would throw that theory out the window :P

Also from what I remember notes are more then just about the names aren’t they? I think some say if she likes the foal or not?

My foal had a name but not note for what it's worth.

Interestingly the only stew bred I ever got with a note was actually kind of ordinary: https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.php?HorseID=556404
I mean don't get me wrong he was a decent horse but in the grand scheme of stewardbreds??? He wasn't my best one.

I think if Em didn’t have the energy and time to name most of them, she probably didn’t have energy and time to put notes in either. I reckon what happened with the naming thing was that she bred a few and was naming them but decided that it’s taking too long and just went on breeding without naming the foals because that takes too long.

You got me pegged!

I want to say there was one note on keeping a name from the what, 5 horses with names? Notes are 99% that I love the name and don't want someone to change it. That other 1% is something fun.

I've never changed a Steward-bred's name. I did name my foal "Tbs Foal" though for good luck.

When I won Moment of Darkness way back when he was a youngin, I thought I won the jackpot of all horses because his note was "<3 please keep name, and smirk because you're the lucky soul who got THIS horse" but he wasn't a standout.

when I won my first stewbred I renamed her runaround sioux because I had no idea that anyone cared what the name was.. I found out that was bad form lol, I wish I knew what the original name of that horse is, cant see it in the history well anyways, she was an ok runner, did so so as a mare, but her grand daughter turned out to be rather Krispy out of Ouiji and it all changed... so sometimes winning that stewbred can turn into something great down the line.. even if not at first apparent

I've only renamed a Steward-bred once, and Em said she liked my name way better. :)
