Though Humble Hamish didn't inherit the entirety of his sire's fire, and the quiet nature of his dam did it's part in balancing his attitude for the most part, he most certainly isn't 'humble' by nature. A very opinionated colt, he will disagree just for the fun of it, and generally where Hamish goes - some sort of chaos follows. Though he's never been one to bite or kick, or seek to injure his human handlers, he sees no harm in explosive carry-on and is well known for suddenly deciding to throw a tantrum that results in the rope-burnt palms of his groom. However, despite the regularity of these episodes he does not possess the unwavering willpower of some, and though he will always have something to say about it first, if his handler remains confident Hamish will follow through with what was asked... eventually. When it comes to his sociability with other horses, Hame is of the sort that puts all his energy into convincing the other colts that he rules the roost; and when he's challenged, he'll carry on as if it's the end of the world, but in reality never follow through with his threats. He puts on quite the show, and can maintain his position in leadership comfortably until he's turned out with an aggressive horse who wants to establish themselves at the top of the pecking order, and at that point it's generally game over. Funnily enough, this is reflected in his work with humans, too; and he most certainly benefits from a handler who knows him and isn't influenced by his insistant theatrics.
In perfect sync with his attitude, Humble Hamish loves nothing more than putting on a magnificent show. However his adoration for theatrics doesn't begin the moment he breaks, but he rather lets it cook and bubble as he relaxes into his gears. Hamish generally starts with the pack, and begins searching for his way out of it almost immediately; eager to find his place somewhere ahead of midpack, but comfortably behind the leaders. Once he's hit the spot, he cruises in a way that seems almost unrecognisable to those who know him at home; effortless and quiet. Easy around the last bend (usually drifting a little wider, as cornering has never been his strong point), Hame absorbs that final puff of gas for his reserves before he really digs in deep and gives it all to a splendid performance. Accelerating down the straight with a crowd-pleasing explosion, this chestnut colt will blaze ahead of the leader, give it his all, and virtually skip across the finnish line as though he were laughing. Well known for creating big margins in a small amount of time, Hamish usually gets his all-important, awe-struck audience in the end.
