Personality
Personality wise, Booker is quite the spitting image of his half-brother, Constitution. Booker is dominant and assertive, and won't shut up or settle down until he gets what he wants. He makes his appearance known vocally and physically, always putting on quite the show on the track and in the barn area. He struts around, head tossing about and hooves always on the move. Unlike his half-brother, he definitely has a stronger affinity towards horses over humans and won't think twice about "accidentally" throwing a kick in their direction if he doesn't feel like he is getting his way. Booker has a rather short temper and it's like treading on eggshells to make sure you don't upset him. The only thing that seems to keep his temper at bay is his love for running. He pours his bad temper and aggression into chasing his opponents, which makes all the difference for the staff's safety.
Booker is aggressive in his daily life and on the track. He likes to break from the gate fast, and power hungry, settling behind the stalkers early on in the race. He doesn't mind being in close quarters with the other horses in a race but he knows where the wire is and the closer he gets to it, the less likely he is to tolerate the other horses. Booker is extremely competitive and wants to prove himself the best in a race. He doesn't wait for his jockey to ask and instead, begins to make his move when he feels he should. He usually kicks into full gear as they enter the stretch, bearing down on the tired front runners. He dominates the field with every stride and refuses to back down until he flies past the wire.
