Doosra hidden meaning in naming of horse

In africaans DOOS has two meanings

DOOS is a box.
or slang DOOS means something along the lines of if ZUMA/TRUMP had a kid it would be a DOOS.

So i am guessing with DOOS RA this horse is named thinking about the RA Box at Turfies which i have never been to even when i was a member of the RA.

Great name for a horse.

LOL Sly, or it could just be a type of delivery bowled by a spinner.

In Indian language it means

The other one

So for eg in cricket if a leg spinner is bowling and bowls the doorsra then it means he bowled an off break
