Year Seventeen Dirt Horse of the Year
Year Seventeen Best Older Male
Fleet Street
16.3hh 7yo Black Thoroughbred Stallion
Dirt: Great Turf: Good Distance: 8-11 Furlongs
Fleet Street is a bit of a high maintenance horse. He is very picky and obsessive about a lot of little factors in his life. For example, if he isn't worked out at the same time consistently every day Fleet throws an absolute hissy fit of epic proportions. He can only be fed one type of treat, and when groomed can only be groomed in a certain sequence of steps. It is sometimes unreal just how high maintenance this horse is, requiring quite the labor of love in order to be put up with. Fleet does not adjust well at all to changes in his routine. To top it off, the colt hates to be touched by anything but tack. Human touch is just not allowed - for some reason, the physical affection just doesn't sit well with the horse. Fleet absolutely needs to have the same rider on his back, the same human handling him or he will go insane. An early life that consisted of being shuttled around a lot may account for this odd behavior. Fleet treats himself in high esteem and has a healthy aura of arrogance about him. He doesn't think much of other horses, except when he is racing them. He definitely has a lot of confidence in himself and it shows.
Leg Type: Stalker
Fleet Street is the same high maintenance animal on the track as he is off of it. He absolutely cannot be ponied alongside another horse because it would change his pre-race routine up too much to have a different horse alongside him every race. Instead, Fleet remains by himself. He is not easy to load into the gate, always distrustful of the contraption, but his unease lends him speed in breaking from it. The minute he's out running, he finds where the pace is and stalks the leader. It doesn't matter what the early speed is - Fleet makes no move to alter it through pressuring or laying off the leaders. He runs through everything until it is time for him to make his move, at which time he'll accelerate as though he's just started the race and shake off all of his competitors in a bid for the lead. Fleet loves to win and loves to run and tries hard for the win every time he is on the track.
