"Violet" is the barn's fiery redhead, when she's hot she's smokin' and when she's not, well she's been known to act up so badly that her training for the day was cancelled. She kicks, bucks, rears and backs out of the gates when schooling and refuses to extend when asked. There seems to be no indication of what exactly sets her off on her bad days. She has shown great progress over the last few months though and her maturation level is bringing her ever closer to her first start on a real track. At the moment the focus is on dirt as both her parents were dirt horses, she has galloped on the grass but not much else. Violet also seems to have an affinity for softer going, particularly mud so it doesn't seem as though an off track is going to be any trouble for her in the near future of her hopefully bright racing career. She has a very appealing, fluid stride that first caught MacDonough's eye at the OBS sales when she was purchased, she doesn't like to lead the pack but will sit comfortably a few lengths back to let the leaders do all the leg work before springing forth from the fray to overtake them in the stretch. Once in front she must be kept to task with either a vigorous hand ride or a few taps from the crop or she will lose interest and shorten up early. Tack: flash noseband, eggbutt double broken snaffle.
