personality
Ennie is one little monster. Her attitude harkens all the way back to grand-dam Rising Fury. She is nearly uncontrollable at all times and it seems like punishment for most of the staff at Witch Creek. She is loud and vindictive, temperamental and bullish. She is the ultimate leader of the entire Year Thirteen crop and she knows it. She was born last and seems to hold a grudge for the fact. She bosses and pins her ears, making a claim for leader of all horses and few others will challenge her. She is the undisputed leader in the paddock, barn and on the track. She rears and bucks, bites and kicks if she doesn't get her way and is quite the demon for her human handlers. She'll unlock her stall door and then proceed to unlock all of the rest, freeing the racing string and causing the stampede. Wouldn't you know that she'd be leading it as well? She is scary quick when running, her movement furious and flowing at the same time. She has to be handwalked throughout the day and at home is often found pacing her paddocks. She whistles like a little stallion rather than a mare, warning everyone that she is around. Enrapture is a creepy filly when turned loose in the paddock, practically wild. She'll bow her head and neck, paw the ground and take off quick as a jackrabbit up and over the hills. It is as though she is chasing ghosts. She'll return and stand with her head high, but always with a few scratches on her legs. She is a sturdy filly for one so haunted and it is only a good thing because Enrapture has the talent for ten horses.
She'll break out of the gate a step or two slowly, always caught a little unaware. She'll stalk the field five lengths behind the last horse even if that horse is a length or ten behind the leaders. Unlike the typical closer, Ennie makes her move three quarters of the way up the backstretch. Most horses would get tired making the move from so far back and keeping the pace up. Not Enrapture. The jockey doesn't have to move and can't hold her back once she decides to go. She'll take off, head and tail flying back during her run and she is consistent. Every race, Ennie comes running and always, always very dramatically. The others know it too because she does not come quietly. Her hoofbeats pound in the dirt as she circles the field with lengthening strides and she'll usually gallop out alone at the wire.
