Would you say this is an acceptable name for a horse?  I've used asterisks as I'm not sure if it's even acceptable to write in full here.

Runs in a 3yo unraced maiden at Chantilly next week.

Obviously French, but always a possibility that, being a gelding, if it shows some form later on, could be bought to race over here as a hurdler. 

I think it's offensive, personally, but at best a poor choice for an animal.
