Kentucky Derby Racehorse Names, Notre Dame Style

The Kentucky Derby is Saturday as we’re into May and the weather is finally starting to turn in the Midwest.  I won’t pretend to be a horse racing expert by any means and honestly, I wouldn’t even consider myself a horse racing fan.  The so-called “sport of kings” does very little for me but if I’m around a betting window then I’ll throw 10 bucks on the 10-horse to win.

I do always enjoy seeing the names of the racehorses however.

So my mind got moving a bit before Derby Day.  If I had a racehorse and was naming him after something Notre Dame related – what would that name be?

In the spirit of the annual “Run for the Horses” here are a lucky 13 of the best Notre Dame themed racehorse names I could come up with.
