(Presumably) the lack of space in "Pioneerof" is correct. RIGHT? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 19:36, 5 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that is his official, registered name. It is common in naming racehorses to ignore correct spelling (see American Pharoah) and word spacing (see Starspangledbanner). Froggerlaura ribbit 19:43, 5 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
The naming rule is 18 characters including spaces, which means that Pioneer of the Nile would be inadmissible. On the other hand some owners seem to just dislike spaces "Day at the Spa" (14 characters) is perfectly fine, but the horse is called Dayatthespa. Tigerboy1966  19:58, 5 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
