Style Invitational Week 810 -- Homosexual Horse Breeding

This week's Washington Post Style Invitational is their annual contest to take two of the names of 100 of the horses eligible for the Triple Crown and come up with the name of their offspring. As in real life, the names cannot be longer than 18 characters, including spaces. Most of these horses are boys, but that is beside the point. It doesn't have to be a boy and a girl horse for the contest's sake. This is a progressive newspaper after all.

Here's the example they give: Giant Oak x Gluteus Maximus = Heck of a Trunk

Below is the list of the 100 Horse names. Click on the link above to enter. They ask that you limit your entries to 25 and double space. Please feel free to share any ideas you have here. Below are a few of my ideas -- Notice a pattern on most of these?

* Fast Draw x El Rapido = Premature Finisher
* Boyhood Dream x Mr. Fantasy = Dateline Special
* Gluteus Maximus x More than Willing = Bent Over
* Gluteus Maximus x Oil Man = Packing the Lube
* Gluteus Maximus x Stayonit = Saddle Sore
* Antitrust x Lyin Heart = Madoff with My Doe
* Old Fashioned x Red Wine = Bad Hangover
* Sullenburger x Empire State = Happy Landings
