Overtrick

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable race horse. It is only mentioned in the pages for the races it won, which should be enough. Also, it mentions the term used in the game Bridge, which does not belong in this article and is not worthy of it's own article. Abusing (talk) 22:25, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete- Maybe notable if the world records bit could be substantiated, but even so, that was in '63. Dare I say... horsecruft? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Badgerzilla (talk • contribs) 22:51, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. "That was in '63" is a reason for deletion? Then let's delete John F. Kennedy. Notability does not expire, whether for a president or a horse. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:02, 12 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Don't Delete- should be saved and perhaps expanded. Overtrick was and is a very influential sire and a winner of triple crown races. Just because it happened a while ago doesn't mean it should be deleted.LPWRHR (talk) 05:34, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. A Google Books search quickly finds a book source that has six pages about this horse, starting with "Overtrick is considered by many to be one of the greatest pacers of all time". Sounds pretty notable to me. And there's a pretty simple solution to the inclusion of irrelevant content about bridge - just edit it out. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:02, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
