Graham is so fantastic at taking the piss out of his guests in a totally friendly way. Never oversteps the mark. Always en point. "She couldn't have meant that show where I'm looking for intelligent people..." Haha. Always makes them feel relaxed. What a pro.

[@makiburgess5733]

At Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto there was a horse named for the commercial catch phrase “Mikey Likes It.” When I heard Darrel Wells say “Mikey Likes It coming up the rear!” I laughed heartily.

[@RobdaVegasMailman]

The Zucker brothers (Airplane! The Naked Gun) owned a horse that raced in Hollywood Park called It's All Pink. They purposely instructed the jockey to stay on the rail, no matter how the race unfolded...because they wanted to hear the track announcer say, "It's All Pink on the inside."

[@somecutepuppy3125]

Omg hahahahaha

[@joanneaugust6611]

This has nothing to do with that, but it reminds me of an accidental pun by a German ski reporter who once said: "Sie standen an den Hängen und Pisten" (they stood by the slopes and pistes), but "Pisten" sounds like "pissten" which would make the sentence "they stood by the slopes to pee".

[@bobikdylan]

The bank clerk may write amusing stuff but who told him he's funny?

[@aquablushgirl]

Minnie is wicked. She is always up for a laugh.

[@akaiseigo]

I salute researchers, writers of this show, Graham and all the crew for always made my day joyful.

[@_JohnDoe]

He should however have mentioned that the video with Hoof Hearted is from the USA, considering that the names mentioned before that had been submitted for registration in the UK.

[@Deano4322]

The horse that goes with Hoof Hearted is Ice Melt it .

[@nuttyprofessor]

Or Ice Dealt It lol

[@PlentyFromJuanSheet]

The mystery of who farted in the winners circle will never be answered. 😂

[@quickchris10]

Announcer: ``Hoof Hearted! I Smelt It! Hoof Hearted! I Smelt It! They're one and two, because of course they are.''

[@shelleypere1071]

Luv Minnie Driver ! And Graham is a class act. Such a breath of fresh air from Hollywood talk shows ❤

My wife and I were sitting at a bar with the horse racing in the background and after one of the races was finished she said point blank "Found my new passwords"

[@Dr.Phoenix]

I'm watching this probably 20th time. Why do I still find it funny ?! 😂

[@talkshow69]

Because dirty names are always funny.

The real question you should be asking is Hoof Hearted?

Minnie Driver looked more relaxed when this was filmed, because you can see that she doesn't feel stressed at all :-).

[@IrishAndProud]

I loved 'Roll a Joint', how he ever was allowed even register under that name is beyond me lol

[@johnconway9882]

Communism isn't cool. Castro and your man crush Che outlawed horseracing in Cuba, and yet here you are throwing in your two cents. 😏

[@infrasleep]

There was a horse named Ganja about a decade ago,raced at Lingfield-even more bewildering how that got through! I think they just look for sexual innuendo's etc and miss everything else.

[@Tore_Hedenberg]

Love the way she says Neil Anblomee.

Heard of one once allegedly called Drew Peacock.. lol. Clever.

[@jimtuck1958]

I work with Thoroughbred race horses, and believe me, I've heard some names that would make these seem tame.

Of course Minnie Driver is the real sensation here, but the horse names are good too.

[@scottcrosby-art5490]

Minnie is perfect

[@donaldasayers]

People try it with aircraft registrations too the CAA are really good at weeding out the rude ones but they forgot the G prefix so one owner has G_ONAD (Cessna 421C Golden Eagle).

[@Kaaxe]

there are other really funny ones that arent rude. Just watched an old clip of a race where one horse was named "the wife knows everything" and another one was called "the wife doesn't know", this sounded confusing when the comentator was announcing their positions : P Another example is with a horse named "ARRRRRRRR", the announcer got real piraty on that one.

[@jimtuck1958]

You mean this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2SqfJyIpZhmadk

[@kaitlyne1870]

I think there was one called Potoooooooo (pronounced potato/pot 8 Os) that one was a long time ago though.

[@paulm1162]

There was a race i sawa few years back in UK and one of the horses was called hoof hearted, so it did get through over here, i was hoping it would do better than it did as the great peter o sullivan was commentating and boy does he talk fast :)

[@yuhand_ayaninura]

Awww they shouldve just let the through, it's fun!!!!

[@thesingleequestrian413]

[@meatballguy1]

I've said this on a Russell Howard vid and I'll say it on this one. I really want someone to buy a horse and name it Nobody, just so I can laugh in people's faces when the immortal words "And Nobody's won the Grand National" are uttered from the loudspeakers.

[@Razeel25]

Norfolk Enchants

[@raythackston1960]

I remember long time ago when people tried to sneak dirty names into the phone book. They went in last name first, middle name or initial, second and then first name last. It was funny when they got passed the people looking the names over.

[@anthonycutt8854]

My favourite that they got away with was a horse in Ireland called Mr Pianist.

[@bobikdylan]

[@davebb36]

[@user-74652]

In the 18th century, there was a race horse named Potoooooooo (pronounced "potatoes").

[@77Badger]

Used to watch a horse named Hoof Hard Ed. He was often bringing up the rear. 🙂

[@trentdiaz8197]

The best real horse name is All Pink. When it ran near the rail, the race caller screamed, "All Pink on the inside!!" 😎😎

[@Cathee.M.]

I almost pissed myself, lol.

[@brianwilson49]

Minnie Driver ❤️

[@Tecolote41]

They should have named a horse Mike Hawk haha you said it... and yes, even if it was in your head. ^.^

[@StormyPeak]

In the USA, there use to be a very nice mare named Bodacious Tatas... I think she ran in 57 races in her lifetime. There was also a fan favorite named Stalwart Member - who was a gelding. lol. I've been following horse racing since 1972, when Riva Ridge won the Kentucky Derby, and have seen a lot of clever names. Those in the clip that didn't get by the censors, are funny. I liked Arfur Foulkesaycke the best.

[@rhondafortson5205]

If I am fortunate enough to get another chance at another life, I would want to be MINNIE DRIVER! Not for celebrity, not for money, not for beauty (of which she has all), ..But for MINNIE'S FABULOUS SENSE OF HUMOR & RAZOR SHARP INTELLIGENCE, & CLASS!!!! Can't develop those qualities, you had to be born with them!!!!

[@wackydan74]

I'd call my horse MY FACE just so I could see all the girls on race day that put money on it cheering and shouting out "Come on My Face, Come on My Face!!

[@Moniqs94]

+wackydan74 You could ask your female friends a question like "Would you like to ride My Face?" xD

[@margaretsteele2756]

There was a horse in canada with a regal looking name but the horse could be winning by 50 lengths and the announcer would never call him "york hunt"

[@Happybidr]

My sister is a public school teacher, and as a joke for the staff person who read the morning public announcements, wrote down in pseudo Vietnamese two names of “students” to be called to the office. They were “U Dumh Phuc” and “Mai Long Dong”. Fortunately the announcer figured it out beforehand and it never got read publicly.

[@berthollocks67]

Hugh Janus Mike Hunt

[@Robhalifax]

Where I used to work there was a tannoy where the secretary would make announcements to the shop floor. We regularly left her notes to announce such as 'Hugh Janus is here to see Mike Hunt'. She was oblivious.

Nads would be a great name for a horse. Go nads, go nads

[@Sainbury]

The name Bodacious Tatas got through the Jockey Club and the mare raced under that name.

[@The4thDensity]

If I'm not mistaken "Hoof Hearted" was once owned by Liverpool footballers Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman.

[@Cruxador]

I imagine Hoof Hearted got through because it's a pun on Half Hearted.

[@loungejay8555]

Minnie Driver should know all about funny horse names; in the nineties she appeared in The Day Today with Steve Coogan as Alan Partridge, and there was a segment on that where he commentated on a horse race and some of the horses names were hilarious, names like "Christ's chin", "Two Headed Sex Beast" and "Astonishing Bum Queen".
