Personality
The first time Malcolm got into an argument with Mr. Right, he lost. There are two rules when it comes to handling this brash son of royalty and that is: Mr. Right is always right & he is never wrong. The bay gelding is as tenacious as they come--smart, witty and challenging. In his early training, Rightful Heir would not move his perfect hooves at all if it meant conceding to a human. He is an infuriating character, but then he bats those long eyelashes and looks at you with those perfect doe eyes--so similarly to his mom--that you have to forgive him. Malcolm had to reinvent his early training techniques to get the gelding up to snuff, but Mr. Right is a quick learner even if he is a bit stubborn.
A playful horse, Rightful Heir is a bit tough to keep to task. His rider is always fidgeting on his back, moving their hands and flashing their whip. The bay colt likes to look around a lot and invent distractions so that he can get out of his work, but it doesn't fool anyone. He loves to work in company the most and can get a bit lazy when he is out on the track alone. He doesn't seem to possess Cross' demoness attitude when it comes to running and will be more than happy to rate for his human. He relishes the cat and mouse game, often sitting in second or third until his rider gives him a tap on the butt. When he makes his move, Rightful Heir seems to rear up into the air, gathering all of his power and steam for one giant run to the front. He often blows by the front runners as if they are standing still, making as flashy and as daring a move as he can. Granted with his sire's stamina, Mr. Right can carry his speed farther than his dam. His move has to be timed perfectly or the brazen boy will relax and loaf. Luckily, his rider knows just the cure to outsmart the fox: never let him rest on his laurels. |
