Easy to spot from a mile away due to his peculiar appearance, Shroud is a friendly face to all at King of the Hill stables. He's a happy horse that is eager to please and very fond of affection. This colt gets along with everybody - human, horse, and, most of all, canine. He adores Merlin, the stable's dog - and, in return, Merlin adores him too. Should the labrador get the chance to break into the paddocks, he will often seek out Shroud. If he finds him, the two of them will play together for a while - chasing each other about for fun - before resting, Merlin often having a nap in the sun while Shroud grazes around him.
Shroud constantly makes noise, though he is not a loud colt. Rather, the sounds he makes are quiet neighs and frequent snorts - more subtle reminder that he is nearby, rather than yelling demands for attention. He's a rather placid boy, easy to saddle and eager to listen to his jockey. Shroud becoming distracted is a rare event but, should it happen, his attention can easily be brought back to the task at hand with the promise of a slice of cucumber (his favourite treat). Because of his placidity, he was very easy to train to tolerate the starting gate. It also means that is is not a particularly aggressive front runner. Shroud merely prefers to be at the front of the pack - he is not hyper aggressive nor competitive. This means that duellers, stalkers, and pace pressers tend to have no affect on him. The colt sees them, takes note of them, but does not react. Instead, he just concentrates on the race - continuing to try his very best to win, listening to his jockey all the while. |
