Every 2025 Kentucky Derby horse name, ranked
Every 2025 Kentucky Derby horse name, ranked The 2025 Kentucky Derby is coming later in the week, so you're probably searching for betting advice as we get ready for the horses to race at Churchill Downs. But I'm going to be the bearer of some bad news: while we'll have some betting advice later this week, this isn't that post. No, this is the post that we've done in the past seven years, in which we rank the thoroughbreds by the horse names, which will help all you casual bettors out there. KENTUCKY DERBY MORNING LINE ODDS: Every horse's opening odds this week What's the criteria? It's a very unscientific combination of originality, prestige and whether it sounds like the kind of name that shows how tough and resilient a horse is to win the Run for the Roses. Let's go from worst to best: 20. Neoequos I'm having trouble saying it out loud. Too many vowels. 19. Luxor Cafe It sounds like one of those restaurants that's trying to be all fancy, but is, in fact, a tourist trap. 18. Tiztastic Tiz not great. 17. Citizen Bull This is not a cow race. This is a horse race. If it was Citizen Stallion, I'd bump it up a few spots. 16. Coal Battle Too dependent on coal. Come back to me when it's Solar Battle. 15. Sandman Too sleepy to win. 14. Owen Almighty No Bruce or Evan Almighty? 13. Admire Daytona Not the worst, but does sound like a bad marketing slogan for Daytona Beach. 12. Burnham Square Makes me think of Bo Burnham, who is funny. 11. American Promise There are better horse names on this list. 10. East Avenue I grew up on a street with a name similar to this one. Personal bias counts here! 9. Rodriguez Named for Sixto Rodriguez, the singer. That gets some points here. 8. Grande Ariana Grande is good too. 7. Chunk of Gold We're getting closer to "sounds like a good Kentucky Derby horse name." 6. Final Gambit Same with this one. Very thoroughbred-y. 5. Flying Mohawk Sounds more like a WWE finishing move, but whatever, this is a really good one. 4. Render Judgement Great name from the horse owned by the late Toby Keith. Feels god-like. 3. Sovereignty Royalty. So good. 2. Publisher You'll see where I'm going with this in a sec. 1. Journalism If there's a time we need journalism and publishers to finish at the top, it's now (see? Told you there's personal bias!).
