the basics Registered Name: Calle Ocho Nickname: Eight Age: 5 (Y8) Registration: 1113 Breed: Thoroughbred Colour & Markings: Dark bay, white star and one white sock on his front left leg Height: 16.2 hh Gender: Colt Discipline/s: Racer
personality Eight is a rather relaxed horse, for a racing Thoroughbred, he's rather easy to handle on the ground and in the saddle compared to a lot of racers. He's generally friendly towards people and won't turn down attention when it's offered to him, although he doesn’t tend to result to attention seeking behaviour when he doesn’t get any. He is responsive towards whoever is riding him, although when he really gets really riled up whilst out on the track or in a race it takes him a bit longer than usual to listen to commands. He doesn’t bite, and doesn’t kick often unless really spooked and when it comes to vet and farrier visits and being loaded onto trailers, is a perfect gentleman.
history Pedigree: Created x Created
First Year: Eight was born and bred on a small but prosperous breeding farm. His parents were decent racers but not renowned ones, of a solid pedigree. Mitchell picked him up at a yearling auction a little over a year ago, impressed by his conformation and behaviour. He brought him back to Close Racing to start training straight away, deciding to train him himself rather than delegate to one of the various trainers hired to work for him, sort of as a personal project. He didn’t race during his prospect season, due to Mitch preferring to wait until his horses have grown a bit more to bring less stress on their structure, but once he did start training his work outs have been solid.
2yo Season: Eight didn't have an awful two year old season, with not many races available to him and a lot of stiff competition, it was hard for him to keep a consistent record. So with that in mind, there is solid belief that perhaps he will pick up in his runs as a three year old.
3yo Season: coming!
