Barbaro (above), a beloved Triple Crown hopeful, won the Kentucky Derby in 2006. His undefeated career was suddenly ended when he shattered his leg just weeks after his Derby win. After multiple surgeries, Barbaro was euthanized in January, 2007. His youngest brother will be born later this spring.

Morning Edition, February 14, 2007 · Well, Valentine, who do we love in sports? Not many, really. I know every poet worth his salt has tried to define love, but in sports, mostly I think it's a matter of admiration. Do fans out there love Tiger Woods or Roger Federer? Rather, I think they love what they do.

But then, of course, there was Barbaro. All you had to do was go to his veterinary Web site and read the e-mail messages posted for him, and you knew, this was love:

"Barbaro, thank you for being such an inspiration. Be well, sweet boy. I love you."

Or this, from a woman and her dog:

"Sweet Pea, have a healing rest and stay nice and warm. Dream of nice sunshine on your back, and, of course, peppermints, apples and pears. Big kiss on your velvety nose and doggie smooches from Brady."

All sorts of psychologists and cynics have tried to explain why so many of us so loved an animal we never met. Never mind. For whatever reasons, we did. The memory of Barbaro might now be revived somewhat, too, for his full brother, a yearling, will probably debut at the races next year. Barbaro's dam is also carrying yet another full brother, who will be foaled in April.

Barbaro's owner, Gretchen Jackson, named the great horse after a foxhound in a painting. She plans to name the younger brothers after others of the foxhounds. Mrs. Jackson has been so wonderful, but gee, I wish she would find a more appropriate name to salute the daddy and mommy who produced such majesty.

Naming horses can be such a clever exercise, too, seeking to draw from both the sire and dam to get a meaningful name. The great Native Dancer, for best example, was by Polynesian, out of Geisha. Get it?

Here are some other favorites, suggested by Bob Curran at the Jockey Club and by Bill Nack, the magnificent racing writer. Listen carefully now:

By Deputy Minister, out of Misconduct: Impeachment

By The Axe, out of Top o' The Morning: Splitting Headache

By Ambernash, out of Chorus Call: Forever Kicking

Let's give Barbaro's kin something just as memorable. His sire is Dynaformer, his dam La Ville Rouge. So we have a lot to play with. On the paternal side: Dyna — power, as in dynamite. And former — either a reference to the past or to somebody who makes something. And on the maternal side, with La Ville Rouge, we have France, town and red. Nice if we could get some reference to the older brother's glory in there, too.

Here's my best efforts to name Barbaro's brothers: Formerly French, City Planner, Town With A Past.

I'm sure you can do better. Submit your suggestions for naming Barbaro's brothers. Names must be no more than 18 characters long — including spaces and apostrophes. I'll send the best along to Mrs. Jackson and reveal those choices here in a few weeks time.

And to those great lovers, Dynaformer and La Ville Rouge, Happy Valentine's Day.

By the way here is a blurb I found online: "Barbaro's stall has a new occupant – the half brother of the Kentucky Derby winner, a frisky colt named Man In Havana."

Answer 2

Barrel Racer - it relatively is impossible for the call Barbaro to ever be used back in u.s. - the names of winners of the Kentucky Derby (among different races) are secure. it relatively is obtainable that a horse could be named Barbaro in the event that they're born and registered in yet another u . s . - eire, GB, etc. As for the 2007 foal out of l. a. Ville Rouge, the others are superb in asserting that he has no longer been named yet. some peole call their foals, others wait till they're yearlings, however the overwhelming majority are no longer named till they're 2 years previous. the main clarification for it relatively is that maximum horses would be bought as foals or yearlings and the recent proprietor will choose for to call thier horse themselves. If a horse has already been named it is going to fee you extra money to alter the call to a minimum of a few thing you opt for for. as quickly as a horse has raced, it relatively is impossible to alter its call.

Answer 3

No Website.

Barbaro's brother will be named after another foxhound, as per the request of the Jacksons of Lael Farm.
