\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTHAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL, FOR SURE. ALL RIGHT, BACK TO THE HORSES. WE\u2019RE GETTING READY FOR THE 10TH RACE COMING UP. NOW. LET\u2019S TALK NAMES. WHETHER IT\u2019S SEATTLE SLEW, LITTLE E T, SMARTY JONES, COUNTRY HOUSE, YOU NAME IT. MAN O WAR. IT\u2019S SOME PRETTY UNIQUE WAYS THEY COME UP WITH THE HORSE\u2019S NAME. HOW DO THEY GET THOSE NAMES AND WHICH NAMES CAN YOU USE AND NOT USE? WELL, THIS DERBY WEEK, WLKY, SCOTT, URQHART AND SAM CARTER EXPLAIN TO US HOW IT WORKS. NO ALARM CLOCK NEEDED. A NEW DAY, SAME ROUTINE. THERE IS NONSTOP LEARNING AT THIS HORSE FARM. OVER 102 YEAR OLDS BREAKING INTO THE WORLD OF HORSE RACING. JUST LIKE THEIR BROTHERS AND SISTERS BEFORE THEM. INCLUDING THIS GUY. YOU KNOW, WE CALL HIM PREKI. PREKI. THAT\u2019S HIS NICKNAME. OUR HORSES NICKNAME IS PREKI. HE\u2019S THE FULL BROTHER OF 2024 DERBY WINNER MAGE AND 2024 BELMONT STAKES WINNER DORNOCH. FOR NOW, THEY CALL HIM PREKI BECAUSE THEY\u2019RE HOPING FOR A PREAKNESS WIN. THAT\u2019S THE ONLY RACE THAT HIS BROTHERS HAVEN\u2019T WON FROM THE MOMENT HE WAS BORN. HE\u2019S LIKE A DIFFERENT HORSE. HE\u2019S JUST LIKE BREEZE, DIFFERENT AIR THAN EVERYBODY ELSE DOES. AND THIS ONE JUST SEEMS TO BE CUT FROM THE SAME MOLD AS THE OTHER ONES. AND WE HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS. ALONG WITH THOSE EXPECTATIONS, PREKI ALSO NEEDS A PERMANENT RACING NAME. PREKI IS JUST A NICKNAME. THIS HORSE IS, YOU KNOW, PRETTY SIGNIFICANT. SO WE WANTED TO HAVE A GOOD NAME. HE\u2019S GOT A STALLION PEDIGREE, SO HE\u2019S GOT TO HAVE A NAME THAT STANDS UP TO HIS BROTHERS THAT ARE ALREADY STALLIONS. JOHN STEWART OF RESOLUTE RACING IS THE MAJORITY OWNER OF PREKI. LABELS IS PART OF A GROUP OF MINORITY OWNERS IN A RACING SYNDICATE CALLED MY RACEHORSE. TOGETHER, ALONG WITH JOHN\u2019S WIFE, CHELSEA, AND THE OVER 2000, MY RACEHORSE OWNERS, A CALL WENT OUT IN SEARCH OF A NAME. WE THOUGHT IT\u2019D BE FUN TO LIKE A NAMING THING AND LET THEM BE A PART OF, YOU KNOW, NAMING IT. WE TRY TO HAVE FUN WITH IT. WE JUST TRY TO, YOU KNOW, GIVE THE HORSES, YOU KNOW, THE NAMES THAT KIND OF REPRESENT THEM. I\u2019M SO BIG ABOUT LIKE A PERSONALITY NAME. I\u2019M LIKE, ONCE YOU GET TO KNOW THESE HORSES, YOU KNOW, SOME MAY LOOK LIKE THEY\u2019RE THIS, BUT I\u2019M LIKE, THAT\u2019S NOT REALLY HIS PERSONALITY. LIKE, I CAN\u2019T SEE THAT BEING HIS NAME. I\u2019M TRYING TO COME UP WITH NAMES. LIKE IT\u2019S ACTUALLY CAUSES CHELSEA SOME ANXIETY WHEN THE TRAINER, BECAUSE YOU TRY NOT TO NAME THEM UNTIL YOU KNOW THEY\u2019RE GETTING READY TO RUN. I DEFINITELY DO PROBABLY STRESS OUT OVER IT MORE THAN JOHN WOULD, BUT. MEANTIME, LENNY PUT OUT A SOCIAL MEDIA POST LOOKING FOR NAMING IDEAS. OKAY, I CAN GIVE YOU A LIST OF SOME OF THE NAMES, SOME OF THE NAMES THAT THAT ARE PRETTY COOL. MAGE. I THOUGHT THAT WAS KIND OF COOL. BOOMSHAKALAKA QUICK DRAW MCGRAW. I WAS LIKE, I DON\u2019T KNOW IF WE CAN USE THAT ONE. HOCUS POCUS. THERE\u2019S SO MANY GREAT ONES. IT\u2019S HARD TO PICK WHICH ONE I\u2019M GOING TO SUBMIT BECAUSE I CAN ONLY DO ONE. AND SO WHEN I POST SOMETHING LIKE THAT, A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO WANT TO COME OUT AND, AND GIVE THEIR INPUT ON, ON NAMES AND STUFF. AND IT MAKES IT A LOT OF FUN TO BE ABLE TO SHARE THIS EXPERIENCE WITH EVERYBODY AND SHARE THEY HAVE YOU SEE THIS HUGE STACK, 2571 NAMES SUGGESTED. SO I GUESS THERE\u2019S A LOT THAT GOES INTO THE NAME NAMES OF ALL KINDS MYTHICAL, MAGICAL, COMICAL, SENTIMENTAL, SOME BLOODLINE RELATED. YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE IT\u2019S A GOOD STRONG NAME, JUST THAT LIKE I CAN LIVE WITH AND HE CAN LIVE WITH. AND WE ALL CAN LIVE WITH GOING FORWARD. BUT IN THE END, ONLY ONE COULD BE SELECTED. I\u2019M HOPING THAT WE PICK OUT A REALLY GOOD ONE FOR THIS ONE. ONCE PICKED, IT\u2019S STILL NOT OFFICIAL. THE NAME MUST GO HERE TO THE JOCKEY CLUB. ANDREW CHESSER, DIRECTOR OF REGISTRATION SERVICES AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT FOR THE JOCKEY CLUB FOR FINAL APPROVAL. EACH NAME HAS A LOT OF A LOT OF MEANING, A LOT OF CONTEXT. AND SO THAT WE LOOK AT THOSE THAT ARE SUBMITTED TO US, YOU KNOW, EACH AND EVERY DAY, APPLY THE RULES THAT ARE LISTED THERE IN OUR IN OUR RULE BOOK, THE RULE BOOK, THE AMERICAN STUD BOOK, WHERE YOU WILL FIND THE DO\u2019S AND DON\u2019TS OF NAMING A HORSE. YOU CAN NAME IT AFTER A PERSON, SO LONG AS YOU HAVE WRITTEN PERMISSION TO SUBMIT UP TO 18 CHARACTERS AND SPACES AND PUNCTUATION WILL COUNT TOWARDS THAT MAXIMUM. ONE OF THE RULES STIPULATES THAT THE NAMES THAT ARE IN POOR TASTE OR COULD BE CONSIDERED OFFENSIVE. THOSE NAMES ARE REJECTED. THE MOST COMMON REASON THAT NAMES WHEN THEY\u2019RE SUBMITTED, IF THEY\u2019RE REJECTED, IS BECAUSE THERE ARE DIRECT SPELLING MATCHES, AND THESE ARE JUST A FEW. IN TOTAL, THERE ARE SEVEN SECTIONS WITH SEVERAL SUBSECTIONS DETAILING SPECIFICS TO NAMES ALOUD, AND IT\u2019S THE JOCKEY CLUB THAT HAS THE FINAL SAY ON WHETHER A NAME GETS APPROVED OR REJECTED. WE DO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE PROCESS OF OWNING A RACEHORSE, AND THAT A LOT OF FOLKS LIKE TO HAVE FUN WITH IT. DO YOU REMEMBER THAT SOME OF THE NAMES HAD HISTORICAL MEANING? WELL, WELCOME TO RESOLUTE RACING FARM. IT SITS ON SOME OF THE MOST HISTORIC AND INFLUENTIAL LAND IN HORSE RACING LORE. ONCE A FAMOUS STUD FARM IN THE 1800S. LEGENDS OF THE SPORT HAVE BEEN BORN AND DIED ON THESE GROUNDS. AND NOW THE ORIGINAL NAME OF THIS FARM WILL LIVE ON. AFTER OVER 2500 SUGGESTIONS AND THE SUBMISSION PROCESS, PREKI HAS HIS NAME. TO PAY HOMAGE TO THOSE HALLOWED GROUNDS, KEEPING THE LEGACY OF THE OLD HOPING FOR A HISTORIC FUTURE. HIS NAM\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
