Distant, but not entirely unfriendly, Ulric takes a lot of time to warm up to a person and even then doesn't enjoy being smothered. With him, it's a case of doing things on his terms. He is stubborn as an ox, but not at all violent - he will dig his heels if he isn't liking an idea but never lashes out.
But if there is one place that Ulric does become more willing it is the track. The moment he spots the track he seems to loosen up and make a bee-line. Nothing will stop him from being on that track and doing what he loves best. Nobody who has seen him in this mode can deny his energy and drive. |
Racing Style: Preceder/Mid-Pack
Ulric gates well and breaks nicely, although not exactly a bullet from the gate, before settling into the field. His preferred position is somewhere between the leaders and the main body of the pack, but he is fairly versatile in this and he certainly doesn't become upset when in a tight group of horses. He is powerful, with a long motion which helps to build speed and maintain it. Due to this, his style is somewhat progressive, and he often moves up the field as the race progresses. But he isn't about to burn out, either. This colt can just keep running, and can really push to pick up speed in the closing stages of a race. His racing spirit just keeps him going, he refuses to give in until the jockey signals it is time to slow. |
