“Free to Good Home,” “Sir Limps-A-Lot,” “Why’s Everyone Running So Fast?” All excellent names for not-so-excellent race horses. (You can see the full list that Tom recently read on the show, [right here](http://www.cartalk.com/content/read-on/2009/06.27.html).) Got a few suggestions of your own? We’d love to hear what you have in mind! You can share them right here. Your in avoiding the glue factory, Tom, Ray, and all of us at Car Talk Plaza ---

For a harness-racing horse: “hugs+kisses.” (For those who’ve read a racing form, “X” means “broke stride,” and “O” means “ran outside”–i.e. wide. So this would be a horse that was always breaking stride and/or running wide on the turns.) ---
