Jericho is definitely one of the favorites in the barn. He's got a ridiculously sweet personality, and doesn't pick favorites - he's always excited whenever someone walks into the barn. He's really quirky, quick to run and kick his heels whenever he's turned out. To the dismay of the stable hands, he almost always finds the muddiest spot in the paddock to roll in, and if he's still wet, he enjoys literally rubbing it on anyone that comes to visit him, mostly to hear their reaction. He's not really the type of horse to spook, but he'll get silly and carry on if he knows someone's watching. He's something of a showman, and loves to hear the oohs and aahs of an audience. He's just as showy with other horses, squealing and kicking and acting, really, like a mare in heat - but it's all good fun. When working with humans, he cuts out his antics, since he's been taught to get down to business. Because he loves the reactions of winning, he strives to do as his rider asks, fighting past every horse to make it to the front.
LEG TYPE: CLOSER
Jericho is a big horse with a lot of muscle, so it's not uncommon for him to come slow out of the gate. At first we feared it may be a downside for him, but as it stands, he seems to like being at the back of the pack. This may change as he matures, but for now he settles at the back end of the pack, ten or so lengths off of the leaders if it's a big field, a little less if there aren't as many. If it's a hot pace, he's willing to stay back further if his jockey asks it of him. He doesn't fight the jockey, but he does need to be held back - as soon as he's given his head, he digs in. His jockeys tend to make their move gradually, moving slowly, horse by horse, until he's in contention for the lead entering the stretch.
