Inexplicable Injustice
Owner Name: Sydney Virginia Wolfe
Owner Age: 24
Owner Occupation: Professional eventer, horse trainer
Other Horses? Chaotic Zodiac & One Way Vendetta
---------------------------------------------------------
Registered name: Inexplicable Injustice
Barn Name: Ice
Breed: Selle Français
Color: Chestnut Tobiano
Age: 13
Gender: Stallion
Height: 16.3hh
Personality Description: Ice is a handful, but isn't every stallion who's bred to perform? Ice is just like that. He's strong, knows what he wants and is pretty stubborn. He can be hard to ride, seeing he has a tendency to ignore his rider and just do his own thing. An experienced rider can point his nose in the right direction, though, and get him to perform. And only with such a person shall this boy show his true nature.
Colorful, friendly, never boring and even pretty talented make Ice a good friend and horse for any human, even though only his rider(s) can get a bond with him. His ground manners are better than those under the saddle; only in the pasture will he let himself go crazy and buck as high as he can. That doesn't mean that Ice never refuses or bucks under saddle, but he keeps himself a bit in check.
History: Injustice was bred to be a performer. Both his dam and sire were well-known names in their fields of expertise, and it was no surprise to his groom that he showed signs of intelligence and talent. Throughout his first three years he was pampered and trained in simple things as being groomed, behaving at the farrier and listening to humans.
After his third spring, people broke him in and trained him for showjumping, but he never seemed to be there with all his attention and talent. Dressage; same thing. A little in despair his owners decided that he, after all, would be sent to auction. They didn't want to see him gone, but he just wasn't good enough.
At that auction Sydney bought him for a sum that was below his true value, as they later proved. With her he found the connection he needed to achieve; he just needed a bond with his rider. In the following years Sydney trained him to be an eventer and they competed, even performed fairly well, reaching up and rising through the ranks.
One unlucky day Sydney misjudged the distance though, and send them both spinning to earth. Whereas she was injured indeed, Ice was in worse shape - fractured left fore and a hurt tendon - needed more time to recover. During his recovery he got an attack of colic, which he survived, only to be felled by Strangles a couple of weeks later.
Only thanks to his strength did he pull through, and now it's a matter of time before he's at his full strength again and ready for training and competing again. After all, that's what he's meant to do and wanting to do.
Discipline: English: three-day-eventer, so he knows dressage, showjumping and cross country. Also he knows hunts, though Sydney hardly practices that anymore.
Anything else?
Recovering from a 'bad' year-and-a-half, hasn't been ridden in that time.
Will hit a rough patch with his owner/rider once they're getting back to training/competition
