I second all of FOS' comments and would say that names have more impact than anyone gives them credit for. "Domestic Dispute" is not as bad as "Aljabr", but consider how much an unpronounceable name has hurt the only son of Strom Cat to win a G1 at ages 2, 3, & 4 that is out of a multiple G1 winner. If he is named "Cat something" or "Storm something" he books full every year!

Hey Byron - I know the Nijinsky knock, but will Dance Master be the exception or could it be that Nijinsky as a broodmare sire of failed sires has only been a coincidence? :wink:
