Holiday Horse Names: Christmas Thoroughbreds

Merry Christmas, Horse Nation. Today, we’re celebrating by highlighting some Thoroughbreds with Christmas-themed registered names. Check them out below:

This year at Horse Nation we started a new series for various holidays! In this series we research and share registered horse names that are related to the holiday. Each year we’ll pick a different breed to showcase. For 2023 we picked Thoroughbreds and will be looking at Jockey Club registered names.
