Hi i wanted to know how to implement a checking system so that whenever my program randomizes a horse it will always be unique. Thanks!

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Horses
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
      String[][] horses = {{"Black ","White ","Gray ","Old ","Young ",
                             "Pink ","Yellow ","Brown ","Orange ","Cyan ", 
                             "Purple ","Tan ","Cerulean ","Silver ","Gold ", 
                             "Red ","Green ","Blue ","Maroon ","Marigold ", 
                             "Iron ","Paper ","Wood ","Zinc ","Metal "},
                             {"Stallion"}
                           };
                           
      boolean check9 = false;  
      String[][] horsePlace = {{pickRand.get(horses[0]), pickRand.get(horses[0]), pickRand.get(horses[0])
                              , pickRand.get(horses[0]), pickRand.get(horses[0]), pickRand.get(horses[0])}};

since in your other thread, I gave you this as a suggestion, what have you tried so far?
and why did you start another thread? you could have asked issues about that in your other thread.
