PersonalitySamantha Mack had done some digging within the two first rescues of Nature Blues when it came to Passionate Ruler and Heart of Stone it seemed she was in a fight over the phone when she suddenly found that Spartan was a sibling to Heart of Stone and as a yearling she bought him off the old owners for a decent price and brought him back to Nature Valley as a half trained yearling. It had seemed Samantha and her team would finally be able to put more of Heart of Stone's lineage to use with her full brother into swing. He was unnamed as a yearling, and so the staff team developed Spartan as a well fit name. The colt was a pinto, quite rare in the horse racing industry but he would soon start his training to become a champion.
Training the colt has been very easy while his elder sister has shown a knack to be aggressive, Spartan is a horse to show only the stubborn attitude and is easily able to be handled. Do not let him fool you, when Spartan is hungry and doesn't get fed during his proper feeding time he can certainly raise his voice for all to hear. The colt enjoys to show off while in the paddock kicking and rearing while feeling the freedom outside of his stall always cheers this guy up. Spartan has a strong frame with an agile body that his trainers are thankful for it makes him move swiftly. Spartan seems to have a soft spot for small creatures and can be seen playing with the stable dogs while showing no attention to his own kind. |
StyleSpartan is a horse to seem silent in the gate with a fierce look to his opponents. When the gate opens Spartan seems to fall to the back of the pack while he finds his strides he holds back the energy he needs to push forward. Spartan calculates his moves carefully and when he reaches the middle of the back stretch this colt is certain one to surprise and dash forward to fight for the lead. When the wire approaches you can be sure that Spartan will keep pushing and fighting as he is determined to set his goal and that is to win.
