Graham is.... Well, Graham is Graham. He's not the sharpest tool in the box, but he's certainly the most lovable. Most overlook him because, yes, he isn't the flashiest, and no, he doesn't have the most serious name, but, when given the chance, wow can he run. He came to King of the Hill Stables with trainer William Smith - Graham being a pet project of his.
He's an utter sweetheart who adores affection from anybody - be they human, horse, or other. Naturally trusting, he's a joy to handle because he will always do as he's told, even if he seems to feel a little unsure about it. This especially came into play when first introducing Graham to the starting gate. Though he hesitated at first, a little encouragement had him easily walking in. Depending very much on his jockey to guide him, Graham is not a particularly aggressive horse. He prefers to run with the pack - sticking wherever the biggest group is until he's told to break away. When he jockey spurs him on towards the end of the race, he'll do as he's told and shoot forwards - doing his best to please as he runs as fast as he possibly can. This is when he's at his happiest; when he can stretch his legs and really let loose. If there's any sign of aggression in Graham, the final stretch is when it shows as hints of his competitive side finally begin to show. |
