Looking for a name for a two year old colt. He was hip 365 in Ocala March sale.
He is now in Saratoga with Gary Contessa and we all call him 365 so someone suggested to call him Three Sixty Five.
I was watching Guys and Dolls for the 1000th time the other  night and as I did before looked up Nathan Detroit and Nicely Nicely. Unfortunately both have been recently used but Sky Masterson is available.
Any Ideas would be greatly accepted.I liked Ares who is the greek god of war.

Ended up naming her Soho Nights. She is in Virginia and will go to Trombetta next month.
Don't ask why? I think one of my partners had some good nights in Soho HAHA

  ........ well the BIG Preps are done .. of yesterday's three preps .. I thought "Sierra Leone" looked the best.. So now unless the Connections of one of the Colts on the bubble .. needs the 20 points of the Lexington .. the preps are finished.. Usually there is one or two colts that dropout for some reason or other ..?

   I know who I like .. but not sue if that would/will be my pick  8)

I wasn't able to watch live (Y'know, March Madness time) but I saw the replay and it was about as impressive as anything I've seen so far.  Got a few more preps to go, though.

I'm thinking, but, so far, coming up empty.

Any suggestions?
I liked Draft Dodger but the Jockey club would not let me use for some strange reason.

 ...... after watching the FL. D. several more times .. I'm still on the amazed side.. Winning by 13 lengths .. running a 13+ second final 1/8th .. almost walking ..? I'm struck by two things .. other colts in that race need not bother going to the KY Derby.. That Fierceness can run a 1.48.22 9f and little to now effort in a very fast final 1/8th walk .. not sure any of the other colts will give him a contest .. unless the timing of the FL. races is suspect ..?
   Three more 100 point preps to go on the 6th .. and the winners of the Ruby and Ark D. are not going to the KY. D. .. That appears it will make the KY. D. very interesting.. Wonder if Baffert has another colt that will run in the SA. D. .. if he does and it wins.. Will their be and asterisk by the winner the KY. D. ..? As a result of keeping Baffert's colts out ..?

  ..... anyone think the Florida Derby .. looked a little odd ..? Timing was a little weird as well .. according to the official timer .. Fierceness ran the last 1/8 in a little over 13 seconds "walking" ..?
