Ardent is nothing less than a wild, lively filly. She has so much energy that she is difficult to ignore. Her determination rivals Black Thriller's, but for her it is more about passion than dominance. She throws herself into every task asked of her with a true worker's spirit - except if she doesn't want to do what you're asking, in which case prepare to enter the battlefield. When aimed in the correct direction, Ardent's drive can be a very positive trait. The only real issue Ardent poses is how selective she is about the person she works with. Of course, with Kylie Silverstar every horse is selective and Ardent picked the young rider almost easily from the pack that got a chance to work with her. With Ardent, it is important to watch for visual cues - she makes no secret of her aggressive feelings if that's how she's feeling at the time. But when faced with people she actually likes, Ardent can be the sweetest horse around. Ardent adopts a similar attitude with her fellow horses. She likes to play at alpha - except when she doesn't - and usually likes to be antisocial - except when she's not. She's a bit of a complicated filly in that respect, but her passionate drive makes her well respected at the barn.
Leg Type: Front Runner/Preceder
Wild Tide is one heck of an eager racehorse. Before a race, she's the energetic one dragging her handlers around the track. Despite this energy, Ardent gates well and is very calm as she waits for the race to begin. When those gates open, Ardent heads straight for the front. She will either be the pace of the race or will sit just behind the pacemaker and bide her time - either move is fine with her, and this flexibility makes her deadly. Ardent likes when it's quick at the front and has a very high cruising speed. Fast races are something she thrives on. For those that believe Ardent won't last, Ardent is keen to prove them long. Even one second of eye contact with a competitor will mean that Ardent will not stop running. Her heart and determination will carry her across that line to a gutsy victory or defeat.
