Blaze has inherited all of his father's fire and more. He's a colt with some spunk, and can be quite the wildcard if you don't keep your eye on him. He has quite the temperament, and is definitely one to act out if he feels cheated, or if there is a lack of attention on him. He loves to show off, and has quite a cocky nature. He is very bold in nearly all of his movements, and is very defensive over himself, and protective over the things he considers to be "his."He can be very domineering when he wants to be, and has a competitive streak that comes out more often than it stays in. He hates losing in anything, it doesn't matter what it is. He is very stubborn, and it's hard to change his mind and his ways once he is set in them. He has a natural curiosity that makes him excited to try and do new things, which allows him to race in all kinds of positions. He does have a kind position that he gets from his mother, but it only comes out around people he's sweet on, which is basically no one. If you do manage to find your way into the colt's heart, it's not necessarily a good thing either, as he can be rather selfish and does not like to share. He gets bored easily, so he needs to be constantly challenged, and when he is he is very outgoing.
Blaze can run comfortably anywhere on the field provided he has a confident jockey, who knows his horse from top to toe. He always keeps a constant focus at the top of the pack, and is always fighting to get there, so he needs to be held back, as he has naturally inherited a strong closing kick. He is not scared of leading if the other horses are not willing to pick up the ball, and also shows no fear in running within the throng of the pack. He has a lot of issues with approaching the gate, but once inside he generally settles down. Sometimes he gets caught up in the excitement of the box, so he breaks slow and goes naturally to the back of the pack until he can be focused. He's got quite a build which gives him a very nice stride, and it allows him to make maneuvers that would generally not be regarded as a good idea, yet he somehow manages to pull it off. His strength is in the final few furlongs, as he really pulls himself together and puts forth an incredibly brilliant and thrilling effort to get himself over the wire first.
