WP:N and WP:V; Finishing last in a horse race certainly doesn't warrant notability, though article asserts notability (not verified) because of a "common phrase" inspired by the race. Possible vio of WP:NEO. SoSaysChappy (talk) 22:51, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete: I found two sources in a [http://www.google.com/archivesearch?q=sunshine+sally+horse Google News search] ([http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=-qULAAAAIBAJ&sjid=EFUDAAAAIBAJ&pg=4624,3929727&dq=sunshine+sally+horse], [http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=96ULAAAAIBAJ&sjid=EFUDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3257,3385769&dq=sunshine+sally+horse]), both from the same newspaper. I tried a normal Google search, but that came up with stuff that obviously weren't about the horse (i.e. [http://www.kcbd.com/Global/story.asp?S=1043135 this]), and a more specified search came up with nothing. Those two sources lead me to believe that the horse doesn't pass WP:N -- the horse was listed as a "strong contender" in one, and the competition he won wasn't a notable competition. -- Nomader (Talk) 23:23, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
