After her foals Mr President, a full-brother to Jolting Joe–and Somelikeithotbrown (Big Brown), we now have a lovely reference to Marilyn’s second husband Joe DiMaggio, one of whose nicknames was “Joltin’ Joe”–epitomized by the 1942 big-band song “Joltin’ Joe DiMaggio”, by  Ben Homer and Alan Courtney. The “Yankee Clipper” (another of Joe’s nicknames)  is one of the best baseball players of all times and has pride of place also in the moving lyrics of a famous Simon & Garfunkel song: “Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?/Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you/Woo, woo, woo.” Let’s hope the future career of this promising young colt resembles the luminous one of his legendary namesake.
