personality
Speed crazy is not a trait you typically look for in a racehorse. There has to be some sense of rateability for a horse to succeed on the racetrack. Optimus Unstoppable has never seemed to heard of that particular trait. It doesn't really seem to matter either. The bay colt is brilliantly fast, both running or being handled around the barn. His intelligence is unbelievable and his cleverness is even charming. Optimus is the horse that needs to be watched constantly and watched with a stern eye at that. He is not one for obeying rules and is the horse that always seems to be on his toes even on a bad day. The colt is strong and determined, often goes to the track with every muscle pumping with adrenaline. It is like sitting on a powder keg about to be lit. He is never still, always flashing his fiery eyes around to look for something he can get into. On the racetrack the only horse who seems to be able to match Optimus speed for speed is Cross My Heart. It is a hoot to watch the bay colt and black filly gun one another down. Their competitiveness is unrivaled and their focus in the heat of battle is absolutely impressive. Optimus has untapped talent and is likely to only get better with age. The bay colt will break swiftly from the gate and it is in that split second that his rider will have to decide to take back or go immediately to the front. If the rider does not take advantage of the momentary lapse, Optimus will take over and shoot away to the lead in an effort to burn his rivals off their hooves. However, if the rider catches him, Optimus is as versatile and as pliable as the most well-rated horse. Optimus will do anything to get into that winner's circle photo, loving the adoring atmosphere of his fans.
