Top 10 Funniest Racehorse Names

24/04/2023|SB Staff|Horse Racing News
<p>We’ve all done it: backed a horse because they had a funny name.</p> <p>Every now and again this sport steeped in tradition, prestige and class is infiltrated by downright childish, ridiculous and hilariously named steeds.</p> <p>For your entertainment we’ve rounded up 10 of the most out there and funny racehorse names from throughout history.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>10. Arrrrr</h3> <p>&nbsp;No, the commentator didn’t stub his toe, that’s just Arrrr barreling down the home straight.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>9. Hoof Hearted</h3> <p>&nbsp;Say it out loud, then you’ll get it. Hoof Hearted? Not me.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>8. Passing Wind</h3> <p>The second flatulence related name on this list. Passing Wind proves that regardless of whether you are six years old or a multi-millionaire and a racehorse owner, toilet humour is still undefeated.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>7. Wear The Fox Hat</h3> <p>&nbsp;Named purely to stitch up Irish commentators. Wear The Fox Hat becomes very NSFW when said by someone of Irish descent.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>6. Big Tits</h3> <p>Simple, effective, easy to remember. Big Tits was unfortunately a big letdown. The French filly failed to place in any of its six races.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>5. Nosupeforyou</h3> <p>Galloping into number 5 is Nosupeforyou. Because who doesn’t love a Seinfeld reference?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>4. Bodacious Tatas</h3> <p>The classier, more poetic alternative to horse No. 6 on this list. Bodacious Tatas was also a more accomplished steed than Big Tits, actually winning a race in its hayday in the early 90s.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>3. Sotally Tober</h3> <p>Ahhh yes, Sotally Tober, just like most racegoers.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>2. Maythehorsebewithu</h3> <p>A long time ago, on a racetrack far, far away you could find this New Zealand thoroughbred.</p> <p>A not-so-subtle play on a classic Star Wars reference, Maythehorsebewithu actually had a pretty decent career – winning six races and earning over $380,000 in prize money.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h3>1. Horsey McHorseface</h3> <p>Carrying on the proud tradition of Hooty McOwlface and Boaty McBoatface is Horsey McHorseface.</p> <p>Horsey McHorseface gained quite the cult following online and quickly became “the people’s horse” due to its hilarious moniker.</p> <p>It even won the Arthur Thompson Memorial Maiden Plate at Cessnock Racecourse on our very own shores.</p> <p>Unfortunately McHorseface is no longer with us, passing away from bone disease, but it’s safe to say the gelding left a lasting legacy as the funniest named horse of all time.&nbsp;</p>
