In the past couple of years, there have been a few threads requesting help in naming foals. I’m pretty sure somebody picked a name I came up witih last year, and was just wondering how s/he was doing. Unfortunately, I can’t quite remember what the final selection was, but I think it was something like “Dun it Right” or “Dun Good”. Part of the name was dependent upon the breeder/stable, and I think it was something about JKK Dox N Sox. (I could be wrong.) And of course those words are all too short and/or common for me to search on. :dubious:

Just wondering!

OK - it’s been a while since I posted this and decided to give it a bump. I think it was **Grits and Hard Toast** or possibly **Barrels** who started the “name my horse” thread, but since I can’t search, I can’t be sure. Anybody have a clue?

All good, except for the fact that in the desert you can’t remember your own damn name. I wonder why?
