B&C Best Named Horse -- Reference

Post by Jeb Clampett »

Contest limited to yearlings and 2 yo's that you own.

Base rules at viewtopic.php?f=19&t=17898

There are three categories. As before, you can enter one horse in each category (must be different horses) so you have three chances to win.

Here -- Reference: Where the horse's name makes reference to some song, group, performer, poem, quote,...whatever


Obviously, entering a horse in each category triples your chance of winning 8)
Plus triples the fun -- it's so much fun to read all the names! :lol:

Post away!

I'm a LOST fan, and this horse was named after one of the episodes...the one about Richard Alpert who never aged, and the episode explained why that was so. I had a Lost, mare that I bred to Ad Infinitum...and it resulted in a a colt that got a wings gallop comment. :)

Ab Aeterno -- Ad Infinitum X Clever Girl, by Lost.

Ad Infinitum - is a Latin phrase meaning to infinity or having no end.
Ab Aeterno - means from the beginning of time, or a very long time ago.

I named Conando right around the time that Conan O'Brien was about to be done with the Tonight Show this past spring. It was a time when he was doing some of his best work in my opinion :)

Cottonwood Whisper

Named for the song "Song of Wyoming" by Chris LeDoux. Wyoming is my favorite place on Earth, and where I have a lot of wonderful memories. (This filly's half brother is Wind In The Sage, also named for the song.)

"Down in the canyon, the cottonwood whispers
A song of Wyoming for me."
