rickjames Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I have been a huge fan of Muse ever since hearing Sunburn played on Soccer AM about 8 years ago and have since seen them countless times. Probably like a lot of people on here, their music has inspired me and been a big soundtrack through life over the past decade. My other passion is horse racing and I’ve always dreamt of owning a racehorse. This year I decided to fulfil my dream as a few things have happened to make me realise life really is too short. When it came to naming him, there was only one real choice for the theme. Ive called him Supermassive Muse. http://www.racingpost.com/horses/horse_home.sd?horse_id=680124 Anyway to cut a long story short, I got a two year old which will be running this year. Already entered for a good race in October but hopefully should have a few runs before hand. I’ve had a lot of stick off my mate’s for naming it after my favourite band but at the end of the day it’s just a bit of fun, I just hope it wins a few times!!

rickjames Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 I was thinking of calling it City of Delusion, Knights of Cydonia or after another one of my fav Muse songs but I wanted Muse to be in the title somewhere hence the name. I will post on here when it is due to race for the first time, I can't wait!! ps The angelthatislo, The horse is with Eddie Mcmahon in Tamworth W. Midlands Yeah i remember reading on here you were involved in horseracing. Was it Carl Lllewllen or Twiston Davies you rode for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Ed_ Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Captain Rio has been really talked up over here as a sire, and also as a sire of early two year-olds so hopefully you might see a bit of early speed from the colt. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
