That was a cool horse.

However, his name wasn't dirty at all.

His sire was Romeo. He had only one good eye.

I remember a horse in England from the 80's that was called Mary Hinge, until they had to change it. Most people would reverse the M & H

I dont remember the only one eye part, but that would explain how they got the Jockey Club to approve the name.
