Ivonette might be small in stature, but don't let that fool you. This filly packs the nastiest bite of her crop, and given exactly who everybody else is, that is definitely saying something. She has a downright bad attitude, likely a product of being the smallest, and is constantly out trying to prove herself to her stablemates. She imposes her will through physical means, likely a product of the coltish figure - and attitude - that she inherited from her sire. Whereas Limited Edition was calculatingly masculine, however, Ivon is downright brutal in instituting her rule. Ivon is cruel to just about everybody but her favorite human, who's presence she tolerates. For everybody else, however, there is rarely a moment when Ivon's ears are not pinned to her head and she's not engaged in some display of her dominance. Ivon is a fighter in more than just the literal sense, however. She has the most heart out of any horse in the crop and never gives up when she's set out to do something. She is also a smart horse. If it wasn't for her attitude, she likely would have been the quickest to train out of the entirety of her crop. As it is, Ivon is stubborn and brutal about asserting her stubbornness. She has the healthy respect of the barn staff and her stablemates, but it's likely more a respect born out of fear of her quick teeth and nasty temper.
Leg Type: Variable
This filly is a nasty piece of work on the track. She's typically high-strung and sweaty, but high energy as well. She looks forward to racing because it's one way of instituting her dominance over others. As long as they stay out of her way - and that includes the track pony and gate crew - there will be no casualties and no problems right up to when she's loaded into the gate. It doesn't matter where Ivonette ends up in a field during a race - she will make anything work. If she's directed to the front, Ivon will take it with aplomb and make the field work for every step they take to keep up with her. When stalking, Ivon tends to favor a position whether it will most annoy the horse in front of her, wherever she can push them to their limits. In the middle of the pack, Ivon settles until given her cue, and then she goes. And finally, when closing, Ivon starts at the back and gradually works her way up throughout the race. Within the last quarter, Ivon begins her charge to the front regardless of where she's placed. She likes to get to the front and then hover there tauntingly, never opening up but also never letting a horse in front of her. She prides herself on being an annoyance, and this can be her downfall, but Ivon is just not the type to open up even under urging from her rider.
