Red Herring is an extremely hot blooded colt. He is never still, always fighting for his head. He doesn't mind company in his stall, but he is not particularly fond of any human handling him. He barely tolerates anyone at Firestone, even head of the herd Carter. Weirdly enough, Red Herring only seems to like Sammie. She brings him apple treats every time he visits the racing string barn and has managed to get some resemblance of affection from the tough chestnut colt. Sammie has finally gotten to understand the colt's defiant nature, knows how to work with him. Red Herring is usually keyed up to the point of extremes. He rears, crow hops and squeals every time he moves out of the barn. He is an energizer bunny and usually gets himself worked up into a serious sweat. He doesn't mess his running up at all like most horses do when they wash out in the paddock or post parade. The colt needs a bath almost every day due to his high strung nature. He truly loves them. Sammie will give him a bath and then walk him to the pasture that has a water hole. The colt will instantly take off whinnying his joy, tail in the air to the water hole. The horse spends a lot of his days outside playing. He almost seems to do dance routines out in the pasture by himself. Cantering sideways or in place, bucking and trotting like a dressage horse. He is not a lovable horse, but no human can resist him. He enjoys his independence and clearly revels in it.
