The Style Invitational Week 914 Foaling around

Mr Artistic MD x Burns = Sweet Ducky

Mac’s Surprise x Extra Fifty = Superduper Size Me

It’s four weeks from Kentucky Derby weekend, which means it’s time for one of our most heavily entered contests: At the bottom of this page is a list of 100 of the almost 400 horses eligible for this year’s Triple Crown races. “Breed” any two of them – even though almost all are male – and name the “foal,” as in the examples above. While the real Derby field is restricted to 20 horses, you lucky thing may enter as many as 25. As in real life, the names absolutely cannot be longer than 18 characters, including spaces and symbols.

Winner gets the Inker, the official Style Invitational trophy. Second place receives the Guaguo Pro, a scary-looking kitchen implement whose Chinese-translated packaging warns us, “Please dont toagh the sharp against injary when youare tearing off its pzztage.” Found in the dollar store by Bruce Alter.

Other runners-up win their choice of a coveted Style Invitational Loser T-shirt or yearned-for Loser Mug. Honorable mentions win a lusted-after Loser magnet. First Offenders get a smelly, tree-shaped air “freshener” (FirStink for their first ink). E-mail entries to losers@washpost.com or fax, if you absolutely must, to 202-334-4312. Deadline is Monday, April 18; results to be published May 8 (May 6 online). Include “Week 914” in the subject line of your e-mail, or it may be ignored as spam. Include your real name, postal address and phone number with your entry. See more rules at washingtonpost.com/styleinvitational. Follow the Empress on Twitter at patmyersTWP. The revised title for next week’s results was submitted separately by Russell Beland and John O’Bryne; this week’s honorable-mentions subhead is by Jeff Contompasis.

Report from Week 910, in which we asked you to alter a well-known ad slogan slightly and assign it to someone else:

Many suggested “You deserve a brake today” for Toyota, “We’ll leave the lights off for you” as perfect for Pepco, and, for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, “Look for the union libel.”
