#8 Hedgehunter

Now before you start going all pissy on me, re-read the name of the category; It's 'Coolest names in sport', not 'Coolest human names in sport'. Bitch.

If you're going to buy a race horse and hope that one day it will win the biggest race in the entire world, 'The Grand National', then you could do a lot worse then naming your horse "Hedgehunter".

The Grand National is over 4 and a half miles long and has 30 fences, all of which look like the one in the photo above (i.e. like hedges). Hedgehunter won this race in 2005 and at the same time made me a lot of money so, not only does he have a cool name, but he can make you rich as well.

'Nough said.
