I think they need to include a 100 word essay from each of the horses' owners in the program as to what the hell the name of their horse means. Failure to provide a quasi-coherent explanation is grounds for disqualification.

"I gave our horse running in the Preakness the name Willy Sharted Himself because my uncle in 1979 named a horse Gus hosed Alice and laughed so hard that he had an accident. That pinnacle moment in our relationship was what inspired me to invest millions of dollars in horse racing and I felt desperate to fit in so, instead of naming my horse Chad or Andy or Bill or RuPaul, I wanted to pay homage to my uncle's bowel disaster."

I was at Pimlico last year and that track looks like it's always on the verge of a structural failure.

It's falling apart and needs some serious upkeep, but there are less than two weeks of racing there per year and the owners seem intent on moving the Preakness to Laurel Park.
