The Personality
Personality: Edgar is cool, calm and collected. This handsome gelding could also be described as aloof. He's not fond of physical contact, though he won't shy away from it. He's indifferent, much like his owner. Edgar has impeccable manners, he never puts a foot out of place. He does like to be groomed though, and looks truly content while being pampered. He also really likes children. They seem to fascinate him. He's always his most animated when a child is around.
Again, to ride, he's just brilliant. He tries hard and it shows. When in competition, he focuses just as much as Blue does. Many would say he's an easy horse, but he isn't. He's very hard to bond with, and though it looks as if he and Blue just appear to be almost aquaintences, both rely on one another more than it appears. A horse can only be as good as his rider, after all.
Caution Around: n/a
The History
Basic History: Edgar comes from an unimpressive bloodline but his talents seemed to just appear. The horse, however, only really flourished when he became Blue's. He was being competed by various riders who just weren't clicking with the gelding. Blue spotted Edgar at a show, noticing how frustrated the horse was looking. He continued to attend a few shows after that, and then approached Edgar's past owner. They were able to strike a deal. That was four years ago. Now, Edgar is a different horse. He's competing better than he ever has, and its down to the fact he and Blue just worked together. They suited one another and they just succeeded. They're going to continue doing so, too. Blue is sure of it.
