I know some town names can run foul of the powers that be when it comes to naming a race horse.

My dad was in a syndicate of about 6 that bought a yearling back in the 80’s, it was a mare that was born south of Perth.

They put forward the race name of Boyup Girl as they said they wanted something to tie it in with its birthplace but were told to pull the other one by those who decide what’s decent.
Cannot remember what it eventually got called but at a guess it is still trying to get past the winning post from its first trial run.

Apparently all race horse names are thoroughly checked, but many years ago a Horse raced in Melbourne
named TSIPURA. The owners did it on purpose. No one checked. Now, write that backwards.
You got it AR U PIST. Gonna google to see when it raced
