NMVIP TRAINEE
This horse is everything her name implies and lives up to her nickname. She is as sweet as the day is long and has a fierce desire to please. It's this sweet dedication that she has that really sets her apart from others. She loves people in general, but the people who work with her directly, she shows the most attachment to. She may love people and interacts well with them and horses alike, but that doesn't mean she's a pushover.
When things aren't going well or she's having a hard time, she doesn't lash out or get physically aggressive, but neither will she cower. She can dig her heels in as hard as a mule and that stubbornness just has to be taken with a lot of time and patience. Fortunately for us, those moods are few and far between. |
Racing Style: Versatile - Midpack/Stalker
This gal handles crowds and excitement with an unflappable attitude. She may shift her weight a bit eagerly from one leg to another, but she's not the kind to wash out or become uncontrollable before a race. She is the picture of alertness, ears pricked, eyes bright and standing on top of her toes as she takes everything in. She loads easily into the gates and doesn't seem to mind the confined spaces. She learned quickly to trust her rider and on the off chance that she's excited or unnerved, all it takes is a reassuring pat on her neck and sweet nothings whispered to her and she will settle right down. As soon as the gates open Sweetie breaks pretty evenly. She's not the first off the block, but neither will she be left in the dust. She prefers to settle behind the pack and bide her time, waiting for her window and the front runners to tire one another out, but if pressed, she has the versatility to get a little more skin in the game and move forward into a more present stalking position. Either way, Sweetie will do her part as soon as her rider sends her for home and it is a breathtaking thing to behold as she fights for home. |
