According to Britannica, “This 18th-century horse got his unusual name either through a bit of misunderstanding or a bit of mischief. His owner asked the stable boy to write the horse’s name—Potatoes—on his stall door (or feed bin, depending on the tale). The boy diligently wrote “Pot” followed by “8 o’s.” The owner liked the name so much that the horse was registered with it.”

We have a feeling the owner of this horse either was a pirate or loved the idea of pirates. ARRRR, mateys?

Black Caviar

Known as one of the best to ever do it! He is undefeated in all 25 races! Furthermore, he was named world champion four years in a row; 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013! We wonder if his treat for all those wins was his racehorse name.

Genuine Risk

It’s a “genuine risk” to have underestimated this horse in the 80s! See what we did there?

Flying Fox

Not to be confused with Gallant Fox, he was known for being difficult and winning the triple crown.

Citation

He was the first racehorse to ever reach a million dollars in winnings and once one 16 races in a row! Amazing! We are guessing his name is Citation because he runs so fast, he’s breaking the law!

Okay, we all know where this name came from. It seems like Covfefe’s owner got a little inspiration from a tweet by a certain former U.S. president.
