Personality
Smuggler is a lean machine. He operates on a rigid schedule with the expectation that his humans will cooperate with him to their fullest. He's a nervy horse and very vocal. His melodious neigh draws the humans to his stall every morning where he will look upon them with liquid brown eyes and demand his morning or evening food. Smug is a savage looking animal with a very fine head and a lean, athletic body, giving him the appearance of an Arab-type horse. He draws onlookers like it's his day job, but it comes at a cost to his people. High maintenance is an understatement. His feed is constantly being adjusted to keep the weight on him and he needs to wear ear plugs out on the track. He needs to be hand walked at least twice a day and ridden at the exact same time in the morning, or he is likely to be too energetic to handle.
Like his half-brother, Breaking Point, Smug simply has a classic presence about him. He carries himself with absolute pride and just looks the picture of the ultimate racehorse. While wearing the ear plugs, Smug is unaffected by the chaotic sounds of race day. Not as bothered by the sights as much as the sound, Smug behaves marvelously in the paddock. On the racetrack, Smug is on the bridle and rearing to go, literally. Out of the gate, Smug is quick as lightning and settles just off the front runners. He has an ultra-efficient stride and a great lung capacity so he never appears as if he is lacking energy. The horse creates his own racing luck with an even mannered personality during the race and is quite push button on the final turn. Just a flash of the whip and a shake of the reins will the set the colt into a drive. He often pulls away with a blistering burst of late speed and likes to win under wraps. As elegant as he is, most people forget that he comes from hardy stock until he is locked into a battle for the finish and his will to win is tested. |
