Personality
Al is a fiercely proud horse. Whenever you see Al, he is always bold and confident. He is unafraid of challenges and of new situations. When he was first born, the first thing Al did was greet the world with unafraid eyes. He was quick to stand and unafraid of all of the humans that approached him. Because of his bravery, Al nurtured a deep pride within himself for who he was. He is a very confident horse, very sure of himself. Due to this bold personality, Al is the type to fiercely respond to any challenge posed to him by another. He views any challenge as an opportunity to defend his pride and will never back down. Al functions well with any person training him - new situations are not something Al is afraid of. He has backbone and pride, but not arrogance. Al does not boss others around, now does he think himself above them. He is all self-confidence, but he is not the type that lords himself over others. Al is fiercely loyal to those he deems his friends. When it comes to his rider, Al is a protective guardian against all threats. He takes care of his rider wherever they go. Overall, Al received his name because he is unafraid of any and all altercations, and when faced with something he must work for Al will fight to the end against any and all odds.
Altercation is unafraid of battle. As such, when the gates open Al takes a position at the front end. He assumes leadership even though his races are typically well over a mile long. Al relishes the challenge of taking the lead and staying there. He loves to stay in first from start to finish, but he is not a hot-headed leader. He knows how to moderate his pace appropriately as well as function with his rider. Al specializes in timing his final bid for the stretch for the perfect moment. He has a cruising speed that fluctuates depending on the competition, but no matter the pace he assumes for the majority of the race Al will always have another gear to use for the final stretch of his race, and when he uses that gear Al really throws down the gauntlet. His acceleration rivals that of the fastest sprinter, and any challenge thrown his way is accepted heartily. Al is all heart in the final stretch. Any competitor that comes up to him will receive a response, a fierce attempt to stop them from passing. Al relishes the win and does not lose easily. He will fight to the bitter end for the win that he craves.
