THE BLUE ALIEN

Blue is a kind soul, and he's sometimes taken for granted around the farm because he's simply never any trouble. He'll politely walk on a lead, even before morning workouts, and he's never so much as flashed his teeth at a groom. He's very tolerant of pain, so he's a dream to treat when he's injured - at least, if you can tell he has a problem in the first place. He doesn't normally show symptoms of anything until it's pretty serious, so he's one they make sure to temp every day just in case he's coming down with something they don't know about. He's a social animal, and is pretty vocal in trying to convince humans to come feed him or at least give him a scratch when he's in his stall and nickers over the fence if he's outside. He's a great outreach horse, since he's very good with children and non-horse people. He's a bit of an old soul, and while he'll occasionally sprint around his paddock, he's normally a few-step-in-head-down sort of animal, and is more interested in eating than causing a scene. He's an easy keeper, rare for an actively racing horse, so he gets extra gallops in the afternoons a few times a week to help him keep his form. He's a little lazy in workouts, but he isn't unwilling to work - he just prefers the excitement of race day to get him going.
LEG TYPE: FRONTRUNNER
Blue is a lot more energetic on race day than any other day, but he's still a gentleman. He thrives on the energy of the crowd, prancing eagerly in the paddock and post parade, putting on a show without getting out of hand. He loads easily and without fuss. It's actually a bit of a surprise that he demands the lead, given his easygoing nature, but demand it he does. He rates well on the lead, wanting to have a half-length in front, but other than that he'll pick the speed his jockey asks from him. He's got a big tank, and he makes his move a bit earlier than the average horses - however, his stamina at top speed is incredible, and if other horses chase him when he starts his kick they're hard-pressed to keep up.
