Color: Chestnut
Height: 15.3hh
Pedigree: Foundation x Foundation

Personality: Don't let her sweet face fool you - Rabid can be a vicious terror of a horse when she wants to be. Nippy in multiple senses of the word, if she doesn't like you, this girl will let you know. Many a groom has had the nasty surprise of teeth in their shoulder after turning their back to her - a mistake that they rarely make twice. Any colt that comes near her will also be the recipient of her quick warning attacks, but fillies? They are more than welcome, and she will be friendly with them all.

One way to get this filly to like you is to bribe her with apples. They're her favourite snack, and she will often play nice if she knows that you have them. The only downside of doing this is that when you don't have them, then she reverts back to her usual behaviour. Surprisingly, she also tends to behave better when out at a race. Excited to be going somewhere new - especially when she knows that it'll usually provide her with a chance to run - Rabid loads into the box easily, and the anticipation of a race leads her to tolerate others more while preparing for it.

Though she will initially fight being loaded into the starting gate, Rabid will go in after a few tries. When the gates open, she bursts out and, from the get-go, takes the lead. Being near the back of the pack is not an option for this girl, and she will fight tooth and nail to avoid such a thing. She will take on any challenger she comes across, putting her all into outpacing them and being the first to cross the finish line.
