General Information
"Morph" Registered Thoroughbred Colt Y19 Born Bay 17hh |
Morpheus is a brute by nature. He's big, he's brawny and he's most definitely in charge. It's all eyes on the prize with this son of Kore VS, and he will truly do whatever he can to get what he wants. Whether that be bulldozing a staff member to get to his food (or ladies), or deciding that he no longer wants to be out for a hack by taking the reins into his own hands and dragging his rider back to the comfort of his stall. Morph is pretty tall and he's all muscle, which can be quite intimidating when you first meet him. He likes to be left in solitude unless he's out in the field with the rest of the colts; Morph doesn't like to pick fights with his stablemates, which is surprising considering how hostile he can be towards humans. He has a 'get out of my way if you're not going to contribute' attitude about him, which can be frustrating at times. Morph only allows one or two humans into his space and easily picks up on your aura/vibe instantly. If you're nervous around him, Morph is definitely the type of horse that will take advantage of your weaknesses. You have to be confident and on top of things at all times around him, otherwise you will find him halfway across the property trying to hang out with the ladies while you are wiping the dirt off your clothes. Although, he is quite respectful of the lead chain if you're confident and quick to discipline him just before things start to head south.

Racing InformationConfidence is the key while sitting on this colt's back; you're going to need to possess the drive to win as much as he does on race day. Luckily, with the proper warm-up and jockey combination, Morph will throw his heart and soul on the track. He isn't a complicated ride by any means, but he needs a steady hand and someone who isn't afraid to use the crop to keep him in line around the turns. He'll load into the gates without an issue, but his muscles are coiled and ready to launch at any moment. Morph targets the front for a few strides, before dropping back into a prowling position where he will likely stay until the group heads around the final turn. The colt is relatively easy to keep going in a straight line, especially when he has eyes on the target in front of him. Morph doesn't care which surface he runs on, as long as the end goal stays the same. A few cracks of the whip to get his attention is all the jockey needs to do to send the horse surging forwards. Morph lights up the track with speed and accuracy, his powerful strides easily overtaking the field within seconds. Morph is a gutsy horse and won't be afraid to do what's necessary to get the win.
