1. ARRRRR

A horse that makes every announcer sound like a pirate. Imagine the commentator shouting, “ARRRRR takes the lead!” and the whole stadium cracking up.

2. Passing Wind

Sounds like… well, a fart? Don’t underestimate it: despite the breezy name, this horse won twice in its career.

3. Hoof Hearted

Say it fast: “Hoof Hearted.” Yep, it sounds like something embarrassing. Its track record was ordinary, but the name is unforgettable.
 

4. Ha Ha Ha

Makes every commentator sound like they’ve lost it. Ironically, this horse often finished last—having the “last laugh,” indeed.

5. Two In The Pink

A bit controversial for its cheeky double meaning, but this horse actually won at Kempton Park in 2013—proof that a risqué name doesn’t stop success.

6. Waikikamukau

Pronounced: “Why kick a moo cow?” A New Zealand slang term for the middle of nowhere. Funny, unique, and a tongue-twister!
 

7–8. Mywifenosevrything vs Thewifedoesntknow

Two legendary horses who once faced off at Monmouth Park, New Jersey, in 2010. 

The announcer said:
“And here comes Mywifenosevrything… and Thewifedoesntknow is trying to keep up!” Guess who won? Of course… the wife.

9. Onoitsmymothernlaw

Read it aloud: “Oh no, it’s my mother-in-law!”
Only ran four races but gave commentators a challenge, especially when leading: “Onoitsmymothernlaw… won’t go away!”
 

10. Horsey McHorseface

Inspired by the viral ship name “Boaty McBoatface,” Americans joined the fun with “Horsey McHorseface.” Creative? Yes. Childish? Maybe. Viral? Definitely.

11–13. Stopchargingmaria / Stopshoppingmaria / Stopspendingmaria

Three horses, one message: “Maria, stop shopping so much!” All owned by billionaire Mike Repole (founder of Glaceau, sold to Coca-Cola for US $4.1 billion). Funny enough, Stopchargingmaria earned over US $3 million!
 

Silly as they sound, racehorse names show that the sport isn’t only about speed and seriousness. A little humor on the leaderboard can be pure entertainment for fans and announcers alike.

So, if you had to name your dream racehorse, would you go elegant like “Storm Commander,” or totally absurd like “PleaseDontPassMe”?
