Straight Flush (horse)

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

This is a biography of a non-notable racehorse. It has been tagged for no sources and wikify for over a year with no substantial edits. The horse's only noteworthiness is being related to his half-brother secretariat. Rather than wikify I propose for deletion. patrick.c.knight (talk) 17:32, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete no independent assertion of notability. There is one citation to a very long article on secretariat.com a website dedicated to his brother but despite the articles length it does nothing to establish notability, there is nothing special in that story that you would not find in any of the hundreds of other horse adoptions that go on each year other than this one was published by the adopter. - Icewedge (talk) 17:56, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Agreeing with that, there is no reason to think this horse more notable than others. It would be different if it won prestigious races but I cannot find anything like that.  So # Why  18:16, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notability is not inhereted. Secretariat is clearly notable, but this horse doesn't seem to have done anything worthy of note except be vaguely related to him. ~ mazca  t 20:28, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable and non-verifable. Jasynnash2 (talk) 11:51, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
