Radiohead (The Horse) Ready For Kentucky Derby

11:34 a.m. · March 23, 2010 · by Andrew Winistorfer

Consider the contest for the coolest thing named after/inspired by a rock band over: Radiohead have had a horse named after them. And said horse, named Radiohead after the band, not the Talking Heads song, is going to be competing at this year's Kentucky Derby, where it is currently at 20-1 odds. The race goes down on May 1. Expect fans of Radiohead (the horse) to sort of like Radiohead around the Kentucky Derby, praise its avant techniques during the Preakness, and claim it is just as good as before during the Belmont. I imagine the stud fees are going to be huge for this horse. Expect it to sire a shitty colt named Muse. [Spinner]
